Superman had his Fortress of Solitude, Batman had the Batcave and Earth’s Sorcerer Supreme, [Doctor Strange](http://time.com/4162125/benedict-cumberbatch-doctor-strange-photos/?iid=sr-link5), has his own space for quiet contemplation, the Sanctum Sanctorum. It may not be quiet for long, though, as fans can now find its once-secret location on Google Maps.

As [spotted](https://twitter.com/ChrisHewitt/status/790495052367814656) by an eagle-eyed fan, Dr. Stephen Strange’s New York City lair is not quite so secret anymore. As a likely tie-in to the upcoming movie, which stars [Benedict Cumberbatch](http://time.com/4511407/tom-hiddleston-benedict-cumberbatch/?iid=sr-link1) as the Marvel superhero, when you search for “[Doctor Strange’s](http://time.com/4291786/doctor-strange-trailer-benedict-cumberbatch/?iid=sr-link1) Sanctum Sanctorum” in Google Maps, it brings up the location at 177A Bleecker Street in Manhattan. Google classifies the location (which is actually occupied by a deli) as an “Association or Organization,” which just so happens to have Marvel.com as its web address.

Fans have been leaving reviews for the [Doctor](http://time.com/4496007/doctor-strange-benedict-cumberbatch-transformation/?iid=sr-link6)’s services on Google, despite the fact the Google version of the Sanctum Santorum is even less real than the [LEGO version](https://shop.lego.com/en-US/Doctor-Strange-s-Sanctum-Sanctorum-76060).

> [](https://twitter.com/ChrisHewitt/status/790495052367814656)

[_Doctor Strange_](http://time.com/4420799/benedict-cumberbatch-doctor-strange-trailer/?iid=sr-link9), which also stars Tilda Swinton, Rachel McAdams, Mads Mikkelsen, and Chiwetel Ejiofor, open in theaters on Nov. 4.
