Via Margutta 51: Joe Bradley's Apartment, Rome

Joe Bradley resided at Via Margutta 51, where the interior of his apartment and the spiral staircase were constructed as a studio set. whereas the external features of the courtyard were genuine. The arched wooden entrance could be found a mere two doors north of Vicolo dell'Orto di Napoli.

Upon entering, one would discover a spacious court, with the artist's studio apartment situated on the right. Towards the back, a tunnel passageway (notable for the eagle sculpture adorning its entrance) would lead to another landing. This landing was showcased in the film when Joe lent Ann money, and observant viewers could spot the landlord's balcony situated above the tunnel.

To locate Joe's apartment door, one would need to ascend several flights of stairs while staying to the right. It is highly likely that the view captured from Joe's terrace was filmed from one of these apartments within the courtyard.
