[Updated] Not an April Fool's gag: 'The Carrie Diaries' filming on the Bowery and Bond today

So... "Sex and the City" prequel "The Carrie Diaries" follows Carrie Bradshaw during her senior year of high school during the early 1980s and subsequent move to New York... And it will be a series on the CW... and today, crews are on the Bowery and Bond Street to film scenes for the show... [Updated: Crews are also on Astor Place and Lafayette]



...and the crew brought in some early 80s classics for the shoot...



And did Ian Schrager OK these clunkers to be parked so close to 40 Bond?


Updated 3:01 p.m.

Cars aren't the only retro parts of the shoot... here are extras on Lafayette that Organizing the Soup spotted...


At least we think they're extras.

Surely this is a movie about Carrie Fisher? Carrie Bradshaw is way to old fit that timeline--- if you look closely you can see SITC billboards in pics of Times Square from the WW II era.

How can they film a retro piece on the Bowery? It looks like a chain store infused Dubai.

They already made a movie about Carrie Bradshaw. It was called 'War Horse.''
