The picturesque suburb of Nyack, New York, serves as the filming location for Mark’s quiet, grief-laden home, where he struggles with the loss of his wife and the artificial compartmentalization of his life. Unlike the cold, corporate sterility of Lumon, Nyack’s tree-lined streets, cozy houses, and intimate settings should offer warmth and normalcy—but instead, they feel slightly hollow, subtly eerie. The small-town quietness only amplifies Mark’s emotional isolation, reinforcing the idea that even outside of Lumon, he is still trapped in a world shaped by loss and control. The contrast between Nyack’s seemingly peaceful environment and Mark’s psychological turmoil highlights the show’s central theme: that true autonomy may not exist, even beyond the walls of Lumon.
