Here is a fun article by David July, who tracked down some of the filming locations. It has some nice photos of the iconic PlayTronics building at 400 National Way in Simi Valley:

He did misidentify the bridge the white van drove over. It's the Dumbarton, not the San Mateo, and they are driving in the correct direction. (From SF you would take 101 to Marsh or Willow and get on the Dumbarton from there.)
A sad note: The PlayTronics building was converted to an Amazon distribution center a few years ago, and the entire front of the building was torn down and made into loading docks.
I suppose it is ironic that I watched Sneakers on Amazon Prime!
- LeoPanthera 4y agoIMDB has a list of filming locations, as it does for most movies. Including the correct bridge. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105435/locations https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105435/locations
- Stratoscope 4y agoNice! It's funny, of all the times I've visited IMDB I somehow never noticed this feature. Thank you for pointing it out.
