I love The Crow, it's my favorite movie of all time. And I've wondered this at times myself, but I figured it wasn't a "real" apartment, but either a stage or a combination of that and computer imaging. Kind of like how they used computer imaging for certain parts involving Brandon Lee after he died while making the movie. I thought this part of the article on The Crow from Wikipedia might help you, and I thought it was interesting myself....
Although the comic clearly states a Detroit setting, it is never explicitly stated in which city the film takes place. Almost all aerial shots are actually miniatures overlaid with CG elements. Several clues and references throughout the film point toward its being set in Detroit: "Devil's Night" is culturally associated with the Detroit area; in an early bar scene T-Bird refers to his gang as "Motor-city motherf----rs" and Detroit is commonly known as "The Motor City" due to its main industry of car manufacturing. T-Bird mentions that "Lake Erie caught on fire once from all the crap floating around in it." Detroit is located at the western end of Lake Erie. Additionally, in the sequel's novelization Sarah makes references several times to having lived in Detroit. This may or may not be considered canon, however. Also at the end where the fight scene takes place at the church some say is a church in Detroit. In a couple of the scenes located in "The Pit", there are signs that say "Stroh's On Tap". Stroh's is a type of beer brewed in Detroit.
I also just found out online (and never knew this, go figure..haha), that the entire movie was filmed in North Carolina. But like the paragraph above talks about, miniatures and computer imaging are used a lot in the movie. I just read that the church at the end of the movie, is a miniature as well.
