Sometimes the stand in location is almost within sight of the place it is representing. ISTR that in “The Red Shoe” (the Tom Hanks remake of “The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe.”) he ran up the steps of the National Gallery of Art with the Capitol in the background and then into a congressional hearing. As if the NGA was one of the congressional office buildings on the OTHER side of the Capitol.
Or the TV show “Wonderyears” where at times the Canadian side of Niagara Falls was used to represent the American Side.
