Visited the impressive and friendly set of the legal drama Suits last week in Toronto. The series returns for a second season tonight at 10 p.m. ET on USA Network.

Suits shoots at the same former munitions factory in Downsview where Covert Affairs is lensed. By crossing a gigantic, wide concrete hallway, you can sort of walk between Washington (Covert's locale) and Manhattan (the Suits setting).

Talk about multi-functional. The same huge building also houses a church and a roller derby rink!
The Suit set is stunning (say that three times fast). The legal offices are all chrome, glass and teak and stretch along much of one very large soundstage. Outside the windows is a crazy long and very realistic photo scrim of the view from a midtown Manhattan skyscraper. You can see across the Hudson to the boroughs and the panorama is stunningly three dimensional.

Louis Litt's only a junior partner at Pearson-Hardman but you wouldn't know it from his office. The room is as big as a bowling alley. The walls are covered with fake law degrees and especially photos of Litt, played by Rick Hoffman.

Speaking of fake law degrees, I spoke with Suits stars Gabriel Macht (Harvey Specter; far left) and Toronto-born Patrick J. Adams (Mike Ross, left) between takes. The two look like lawyers in their designer suits, especially Macht. I asked them if either was ever temped — having played a lawyer — to defend himself in a real court of law.

Adams, who plays fake lawyer Ross (the character is a former drug dealer who is brilliant in court even though he doesn't have a law degree), said hell yes — especially after he was hit by a bus in Los Angeles. Whoa, in case his mom is reading this, he's fine. "It sounds way worse than it was," he qualifies. "The bus was moving very slowly. Basically I bounced off the thing, got a scrape on my arm."

Adams was sitting on his Honda scooter at the time. What the hell, he thought, the bus company owes me for the damage to my twelve-hundred dollar scooter. Time to change into TV lawyer man. "For about three days I was doing the research, prepping for a case and thinking, this would be great press for the show," he thought. "But as soon as I actually got into what it literally takes to get into anything legal…" Adams realized he was not cut out for the real legal ordeal.

He didn't hire a real lawyer, either. "It ended up costing me $400 to fix the scooter," he says. "What was I going to do — stick it to the man? The L.A. bus company has an army of lawyers."

Macht had a hard time topping that story. "Well, I got hit by a train last month," he joked.

He says his dad has asked him to put on one of those fancy Suits suits and represent him in a property dispute with a neighbor, but he's thought the better of it. He says he couldn't walk into a real court without what he walks onto the set of Suits with — a writer.

"I could maybe do it in a Cyrano de Bergerac kind of way," he says.

The time spent with Delhi escorts is like immersing oneself in a personal tempo. Their attention is constant, and their curiosity is genuine. They pick up the vibe and react with soft and playful warmth. The desire is built slowly and genuinely, making the experience feel personal and satisfying without any urgency.

Luxury Doors

Great behind-the-scenes insight! It’s fascinating to hear how much detail goes into building the Suits set, especially the sleek combination of chrome, glass, and teak that really captures the feel of a high-end Manhattan law firm. The way the production team creates such a realistic environment—from the skyline scrim to the spacious offices—shows how important design is in bringing the story to life.

Reading this, it’s easy to appreciate how elements like elegant interiors and luxury doors can subtly enhance the sense of prestige and power that the show represents. In spaces meant to convey authority and sophistication—whether on a TV set or in real architecture—details like premium materials and beautifully crafted luxury doors help create that polished, executive atmosphere.

Thanks for sharing this great look behind the camera. It really highlights how thoughtful design contributes to the authenticity of a series like Suits.
