Note this trope does '''not''' cover bases in or under ''fictitious'' landmarks like ''[[The Fantastic Four]]'''s Baxter Building or [[Fictional Counterpart|"almost" landmarks]] like "The Jeffersonian Institute" in ''[[Bones]]''. It also does not cover a fictional agency openly using a landmark as their base, such as UNIT operating out of the UN building in ''[[Doctor Who]]''.
