Trading Places (1983) Filming Locations: Then And Now 

Released: 1983

Directed By: John Landis

Screenplay By: Timothy Harris, Herschel Weingrod

Starring: Eddie Murphy, Dan Aykroyd, Jamie Lee Curtis, Ralph Bellamy, Don Ameche, 

Trading Places is almost an iconic movie for Philadelphia as is Rocky (1976). According to the New York Times it is one of the best movie ever about Wall Street. According to the average Philadelphian, it is certainly one of the best movies ever filmed here. It is a personal favorite of the Glass Dude and his co-workers and to this day still gets a lot of play on the dusty, old VCR at the glass company in Philadelphia we work at.

The timelessness of the film is still underscored by the stark disparity between the rich and powerful in today's Philadelphia and the poor and underprivileged (No political commentary intended, lol).

It is, however, fun to see how similar or dissimilar 1983 Philadelphia is to today's Philadelphia. With that said here are screenshots from the actual movie posted next to the same locations today...

Useless Trivia: The music that accompanies the opening montage of classic Philadelphia screenshots is Mozart from the marriage of Figaro; The Westin Hotel in center city Philadelphia has a restaurant named Winthorpe & Valentine after the main characters in the movie; This was only Eddie Murphy's 2nd film (48 Hrs. being the first);

Atlas Glass Company in Philadelphia specializes in replacing large commercial plate glass and insulated units (double pane windows). In fact, we take pride in completing commercial glass repair that are beyond the scope of what most glass companies in Philadelphia can perform.

Below are pictures from a commercial glass repair in Philadelphia we performed recently on the 1700 block of Walnut Street in center city. The job entailed installing a particularly large (eighty inch by eighty inch) and heavy insulated unit (double pane) some thirty feet in the air. As you can see from the picture it took eight men just to lift the glass from the truck to the scissor lift. This job had to be performed at 6am to minimize the foot traffic in what is usually a congested area. The customer informed us that three other Philadelphia glass companies had passed on the job. He was very satisfied with the finished job that Atlas Glass Company in Philadelphia performed.
