Maybe it is being a little picky but I don't think it's too much to ask for some geographical accuracy when they decide to use an actual intersection on the show. Maybe they don't think it matters since it's "just" Montreal but I'm sure if they decided to paint a picture of New York or L.A. they would make sure they got it right.
I don't think there is any additional cost either to get it right. Last time I checked, Google Earth and Mapquest were free.
Yea true, but the big details ofcourse should be in it. The lesser details doesnt matter much is what im saying. Not all the Heroes fans comes from Montreal. So people from other countries such as myself doesnt recognizes the differences although people who lives there or used to live there might see the difference.
Heroes showed us that they were in NY while in fact they are just in LA this is a detail similar to yours.
People from LA would recognize that it wasnt filmed in NY, but in La.
It's the same thing

Watching little details is important in Heroes but at some scenes it isnt because the details does need to be logical to everyone. Like the Helix symbol on the painting. That has a meaning for the next scenes unlike what you mentioned from which direction it got painted.
I hope you arent offended and get what I mean
