Q. Where is it supposed to be on the show?
Q.
When did we see it on the show?
A. In Episode 7, of Season 8, "Dress Code".
After Dexter tracks down Hannah McKay and finds her aboard a rich man's yacht, he follows them to this exclusive club.
But when he
tries to enter, he is stopped at the door and told the club is
members-only and has a strict dress code (Dex is dressed in his usual
pink shirt).
So Dexter phones Zach Hamilton, a rich young psychopath Dex is taking on as an apprentice, and (with Dex now wearing a jacket) Zach easily gets him into the club.
Inside, Dex spots Hannah and the older man at the bar, and when the man leaves, Dexter goes over to talk to Hannah.
He is
shocked when she tells him that she's married to the rich stranger,
whose name, she tells him, is Miles Castner. She warns Dex to
leave before Miles sees him.
But he doesn't, even after Zach texts him that Miles is coming back.
An tense scene ensues, and Dex is shocked once again to learn that Miles knows his name, and knows that he put Hannah in prison.
Miles & Hannah leave the club, while Dexter fumes at the bar.
Q. What is it actually in real life?

This scene appears to have been shot at the club's Library bar., a smaller room next to the 7,500-sq. ft. three-level ballroom.
This is the same club where they filmed back in Season 5, when (on the show) it was supposed to be Club Mayan.
Here is a photo of the Library bar at Boulevard 3, from their website
Here is an aerial
photo of the location. Here is a Google StreetView. And here is a map
link.
Q. How the heck did you figure out where it was?
A. In the early seasons, I
usually had to hunt down the locations after viewing the episodes, using
clues from the various scenes. By the now, though, I've developed
a small group of fans, spies & tipsters who kept an
eye out for Dexter filming in their neighborhoods, and let me know in advance when something is about to film there.
Between those reports, my own personal reconnaissance around town, and a
few new resources I discovered, by the time the new first episode airs, I
already know most (but not all) of the filming locations, and only
need to watch the episodes and match up the scenes with the correct
locations.
This group of helpful fans includes Rick, Ellen, Suzi, Elaine, Mia,
Julie, Kerry, Joel, Eric, Jeff, & others. My thanks to all of them.
This tip came from Rick. (Thanks, Rick!)
