Danno’s apartment, McGarrett’s house, a medical examiner’s morgue, even a brothel.

Television crews for Hawaii Five-0 have transformed the former newsroom and printing press building of the Honolulu Advertiser into a giant soundstage for the hit show. Located on 3.5 acres of prime real estate in downtown Honolulu, the three-story Beaux Arts building — a historic landmark — was taken over by set designers and mill workers after the newspaper closed last year. The sleek HPD headquarters depicted in the show is still shot off-site in an old federal building, but come next year, it too will move onto the old ‘Tiser building.
