In the time I've been here I can honestly say that it seems far more unusual for there not to be some film or TV crew working in the area than it is to see the trailers, and trucks set up for another day of shooting. These blocks between 8th and 10th from 17th up to 22nd seem to be where the entertainment industry comes to capture the quintessential New York street. Everything from TV pilot's (directed by Andrew McCarthy no less) to Hollywood films have been on location here over the past 4 weeks.
