CHP Central

Central as seen in the pilot episode

Aerial shots were often re-used in other episodes

"Central" refers to the Central Los Angeles division of the California Highway Patrol.

Some of the scenes were shot at the actual Central Los Angeles office underneath the Santa Monica Freeway. While some early episodes used the actual interior, later episodes were shot on Stage 10 at MGM Studios in Culver City, CA (now Sony Pictures Studios) where they had built as an exact replica of the building's interior.

The original building was torn down and replaced with a newer structure in 2002.

The actual address of the building was:
777 W. Washington Blvd.
Los Angeles 90015-4113
