The Lucie (Brewers Hill)

Overview

The Lucie is a six-story apartment building at 3850 Boston Street in Baltimore’s Brewers Hill neighborhood. During the later Baltimore trips for ‘’I Am Still Me’‘, Resonance Films leased a furnished one-bedroom apartment there for Julian Reyes and Kayla Rossi. The building gave them a repeatable base with a kitchen, laundry, workspace, and separation from the Lee family’s private home.

The production apartment was an A10 one-bedroom. Resonance Films kept the lease active while Julian and Kayla returned to Los Angeles between filming blocks.

Physical Description

The Lucie occupies a large mixed-use redevelopment area in Brewers Hill. The real building has six stories and approximately five hundred apartments, with a five-story residential superstructure above a two-level concrete podium. Its exterior and common spaces belong to the newer development around Boston Street rather than Baltimore’s older rowhouse fabric.

The property offers studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and loft layouts. Standard residential features include electric cooktops, quartz counters, flat-front cabinetry, smart thermostats, wide-plank flooring, stackable washer-dryers, and built-in closet storage. Shared areas include a library, clubroom, game room, communal kitchen, fitness studio, coworking areas, a conference room, call booths, and multiple courtyards.

Access and Production Logistics

During the 2036 production, residents and the small crew could move equipment between the lobby, loading areas, service elevator, passenger elevators, and the leased apartment without carrying cases up stairs. The corporate-furnished arrangement reduced setup between trips, and in-unit laundry and a full kitchen made the apartment workable when Julian was too ill or exhausted to use restaurants or shared areas.

The Lucie is southeast of the Johns Hopkins medical campus and south of the Lee home in Hamilton. It was not the closest possible lodging to the Lees, but it gave Julian and Kayla a stable work-and-rest base for repeated visits. Travel to Hamilton required a cross-city drive; traffic and the fictional location of Haneul Court prevent a fixed door-to-door time from being canon.

Sensory Environment

The building combines residential corridors and elevator noise with the broader sound of a large Boston Street development. Inside the production apartment, closed doors and adjustable lighting gave Julian more control over stimulation than a hotel lobby or changing guest room. The apartment still carried ordinary multiunit-building sounds: neighboring doors, elevator movement, hallway voices, and traffic filtering up from the surrounding streets.

Function in the Documentary Production

Kayla used the apartment as the Baltimore logistics center. She managed schedules, travel changes, permissions, and Lee-family communication there. Julian backed up footage, reviewed dailies, and assembled portions of the documentary between visits to the Lee home. Equipment could remain packed and secured between filming days instead of being rebuilt around a short hotel stay.

The lease was a major expense for a small independent company. Kayla chose continuity and reduced travel friction over the cheaper option of booking a different hotel for every return. The apartment remained a production residence, not a permanent Baltimore home or a public Resonance Films office.

Continuity Notes

The address, building scale, A10 floor-plan size, and present-day amenity list are real-world facts documented in 2026. The corporate-furnished lease, service-elevator use, specific access route, and 2036 availability are story decisions. Current rent and the building’s 2036 owner or manager are not canonized.
