Woo! Hey everyone after over a year of looking I have finally found the location of Mansbridge Academy!!! It is a DICOMISSIONED ELECTRICAL POWER STATION situated on the river St Lawrence between Montreal and Quebec in Canada. It was built in 1914 and is still there to this day but un-used and abandoned. The image below is a today look at Mansbridge or should I say Les Cedres Generating Station- (IMAGE COPYRIGHT OF CHARLES McSWEEN)  |

Oh wow!! Scanjet you've been so busy!! And thats such a beautiful picture - background possibilities?! *lol*
Thats definitely the right place!? *lol* And it proves our theory wrong - we speculated that the lake was faked or created especially for the show but it obviously isn't (unless its been left behind by the filming crew?)
Mad! If you do, can I Scanjet and I come and visit? Often! *grinz*
'Lissa.

Well, if it helps, I've contacted Mr McSween and asked for his permission to use the picture - I'm just waiting for a reply.  'Lissa. |

I have compared pictures and it is the same building, maybe as they only filmed about three episodes there it might not have been widley known. It definatley is the building of Mansbridge.

...and maybe they only filmed some external shots there, e.g. just to get some footage of the building and for the opening titles when the vamps are being ferried accross the lake. they probably filmed all the internal shots in a different location.

Yes I think your correct Mad, most indoor shots were studio based/ a different building and not the same as the exterior Mansbridge!
