The apartment balcony that Omar Little jumped from in The Wire

This is the apartment balcony that Omar Little jumped from in The Wire.

The scene was filmed on the southeast corner of 901 Druid Park Lake Drive in Baltimore, Maryland.

In the episode "React Quotes" (S05E05), Omar and Donnie decide to avenge Butchie's death by targeting Monk—a lieutenant in the Stanfield organization.

The pair stake out Monk's apartment building until his associates leave and the lights go out. At that point, they decide to make their move.

However, unbeknownst to them, the gang is anticipating their attack. Marlo Stanfield's enforcers, Chris Partlow, Snoop Pearson, and Michael Lee, are all waiting inside to ambush them.

Omar and Donnie come under heavy fire as soon as they break down the front door.

Donnie is shot in the head, and Omar is forced to find cover behind a couch. After trading gunfire with his attackers, Omar eventually runs out of bullets.

Sensing that he has no other options, he runs towards the balcony and jumps four stories to the ground below.

Miraculously, he manages to survive the fall and escape—much to the bewilderment of his assailants.
