The Universal backlot NYC street had (has?) a brownstone with an arched stairway; underneath the arch is a sub-street level walkway by a basement room. This room was the setting for the gang dance in City Across The River (1949) where Stephen McNally drags Joe Turkel out to the street. This same spot would see Angel Martin warning Jim about two Chicago hitmen gunning for him on The Rockford Files almost 30 years later.
Universal did not believe in wasting sets. There's an episode of The Name of The Game set in post-Dubcek Czechoslovakia where the home of a Pasternakish author (Boris Karloff) is the redressed Shiloh ranch house of The Virginian.
