An office building in the Strip District will serve as a filming site for Jeff Daniels’ Showtime series “Rust” on Tuesday, with one street nearby being shut down during production.
The City of Pittsburgh Office of Special Events confirmed to the Post-Gazette that Showtime had been granted a permit for filming Tuesday at the Burns White Center on 26th Street in the Strip District. “Rust” is the only announced movie or TV show in town currently filming, according to Pittsburgh Film Office director Dawn Keezer.
As part of Tuesday’s filming, the portion of 26th Street that extends from where it intersects with Railroad Street to the point it dead ends at a trail along the Allegheny River will be closed from 5:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. for parking and staging equipment during the Burns White Center shoot, according to the Office of Special Events.
All of the filming will take place inside the Burns White Center, so the Office of Special Events doesn’t anticipate any noise or lighting-related disruptions, especially to those living in the nearby Yards at 3 Crossings apartment complex. The Office of Special Events did specify that “any impacted residents will be accommodated.”
Jeff Daniels stars as former FBI director James B. Comey in “The Comey Rule.”

Jeff Daniels’ Showtime series ‘Rust’ to film Thursday in Ross
“Rust” was supposed to film in and around the Steel City beginning in March 2020 but was forced to delay a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Production is back up and running now though, and this is at least the second time it has gotten permits for road closures after it did so for an April shooting day in Ross.
Its 10-episode first season will star Daniels, Bill Camp and Maura Tierney, among others. Daniels is playing Del Harris, the police chief of a small Western Pennsylvania town who is put in a tough position when the son of the woman he loves is accused of murder.
