Other mistake: After the post-bank robbery shootout, a TV reporter is heard describing the shootout as taking place in a "small southland neighborhood." But earlier one of the detectives was heard ordering road blocks at Flower and Figueroa, meaning the gun battle occurred in Downtown Los Angeles. Hardly a small neighborhood.

Plot summary
Directed by: Michael Mann
Starring: Robert De Niro, Val Kilmer, Al Pacino, Jon Voight, Hank Azaria, Natalie Portman, Ashley Judd, Tom Sizemore, Dennis Haysbert, William Fichtner, Amy Brenneman
Neil McCauley (Robert De Niro) is a thief... an expert thief... one of the best. His philosophy in life - become attached to nothing in life that you can't walk away from in 30 seconds if you spot the "Heat" around the corner. His crew of criminals is a high-tech outfit pulling off professional jobs that impress even the likes of Detective Vincent Hanna (Al Pacino). But Hanna, a man driven through life only by his work, becomes obsessed, at the expense of his private life, with bringing McCauley down. As McCauley's crew prepare for the score of a lifetime, and Hanna's team tries to bring him in, the two find that they are challenged by the greatest minds on the opposite side of the law that either one has ever encountered.

Answer: When Vincent is comforting his wife at the hospital, she says, "She chose you. She picked your place." I guess the implication is he had been staying there for a long time and both Justine and Lauren knew where that was. That's the best explanation I have been able to find.
