The Arconia is one of the most important background characters in Hulu's Only Murders in the Building. Its swoon-worthy entryway arch and larger-than-life apartments serve major luxe vibes that make it easy to forget it's the scene of a murder mystery. While true-crime podcast enthusiasts Mabel, Oliver, and Charles (played by Selena Gomez, Martin Short, and Steve Martin) scour the Arconia for details into the suspicious death of their neighbor, viewers can't help but be overcome by the beauty and opulence of the complex.

If you're ready to hit New York's Upper West Side in search of the Arconia, here's a list of everything you need to know about where Hulu's Only Murders in the Building is filmed.

Is the Arconia real?

Nope. If you're Googling the address for the Arconia, you will come up empty-handed. The murder mystery-meets-comedy is set at the Arconia, but the Belnord is the real name of the luxurious condominium.
