Looking for a 60's or 70's crime movie.
At first I thought it was Bullitt but after digging out my DVD copy of Bullitt, it's not it.
A cop is investigating a criminal kingpin who is holed up in a penthouse apartment.
The cop uses the apartment in another building across the penthouse to use as his stakeout point.
The residents of the apartment are 2 gay men who thinks the whole thing is funny and exciting.
I want to think the cop is played by Eastwood or Bronson or Coburn, one of those 60's/70's tough guy actors.
There is a shootout in the garage of the penthouse between one of the kingpin's henchman and the Police.
There is also a woman involved. If I remember correctly, she works for the kingpin and the cop is using her to gain access to the criminal organization and get closer to the kingpin.
I also am pretty sure the movie is set in San Francisco but it's not a Dirty Harry film.

Found it!!
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062138/
From the wiki page:
Willing to help in any way, Chris (Angie Dickinson) agrees to a sexual tryst with Reese (John Vernon) inside his heavily guarded penthouse apartment just so she can gain access and unbolt a door for Walker (Lee Marvin). Walker ties up some men in an apartment across from the penthouse and has a call made to police to report a robbery, creating a diversion that enables him to slip into the penthouse.
