St. John's Bridge on nbc.com/grimm

This was a bridge episode. NBC Grimm loves the St. Johns Bridge! (See episodes 5 and 9.)

This was also the most horrifying opening scene yet...and possibly the scariest episode. A boy is abducted at Cathedral Park, under the St. John's Bridge. (By the way, do people actually kayak here as portrayed in the show?)

Gas Station & 

Start Me Up Cafe

I suspected this scene took place at the Start Me Up Cafe in Banks, OR, per a little bit of Google Maps research. It appears to be validated by Kristi at OregonLive and her weekly Grimm recap.

OHSU made a surprise announcement this afternoon, and it was HUGE!

Phil & Penny Knight are making a $125M donation to OHSU Cardiovascular Medicine. This is the biggest single gift in the history of OHSU and will be used to create a new Cardiovascular Institute.

"Led by Albert Starr, M.D., and Sanjiv Kaul, M.D., the institute will bring clinicians and researchers together to translate laboratory discoveries into new and better treatments for the world’s No. 1 killer." - OHSU site

The first recipient of an artificial heart valve, designed by OHSU researcher Albert Starr, was present and shared her story.

Read more about the gift and the key researchers involved on the OHSU site.

More coverage from lots of local media sources:

A Portland Parks & Rec truck and driver are rear-ended under the Morrison Bridge, (near the Montage). Photographs during filming (courtesy Sally):

Check out Episode 15 of Season 1 for similar Central Eastside filming locations.

Tonight's plot: "As Hank continues to seek help to cope with the inexplicable sighting he had, an old friend needs his help when his daughter goes missing,"

Aired: August 27, 10:00pm PST

Juliette remembers everything except Nick...

and Hank remembers way too much.

Carly's House 

So Hank has a god-daughter, and his god-daughter is a Coyotl. This could get interesting. Carly the Coyotl's home (Kampfer house) is on the eastside: 1234 SE Taylor St

Hayden's Apartment #203

609 SE Taylor St - Hayden's apartment looks a lot like the "Chaney Arms" apartments from Season 1 Episode 9.

Renicker Farm

They did some filming out at Roloff Farm in Hillsboro (23985 Northwest Grossen Drive) recently. The ficticious foreclosure flyer on the show says "Renicker Farm, Sawmill Rd".  However, the site used for filming was on NW Helvetia Rd.

Gilbertson's Machine Shop

Photos from on set filming at Belmont & 8th:

Grimm Ep 202 Portland filming locations

Filming on Naito, June 16

Season 2 Episode 2: "The Kiss"

Tonight's plot: "Two Grimms are better than one, as Nick joins forces with his mother to take down his greatest threat yet."

Aired: August 20, 10:00pm PST

Last week's Premier was "to be continued", so we opened episode #2 mid-battle in the old lumber mill. Within minutes, we are treated to a gruesome half-arm hanging from the rafters. I think it was FBI lady's arm. Is it just me or this season much more gory than the last?!

Albers Mill 

The Albers Mill building on Naito Parkway made it's debut, gracefully filling in for "Treeview Hospital" in this episode. Filming took place there in mid-June (see above).

Fun fact: this is across the street from where Arthur was parked when he got the bad news in Episode 20 (Season 1).

Very lovely shot of Nick throwing his gun into the Willamette:
