Last look at 'Boardwalk Empire' on East Fourth Street today

Let's end the day with a few more photos from the "Boardwalk Empire" shoot on East Fourth Street today... the lot adjacent to to the Cornelia Connelly Center was remade to be the "Carmine Street Garage."


Sonia Akhtar, who took the above photos, said on Facebook that the crew had been working on this set for about a week...

And here are shots of some cast members via Bobby Williams...





...and East Village photographer Gudrun Georges captured the spirit of the set in black and white...



Find more of her photos here.

At the end of the day, the Models Ts were returned to Ventnor Avenue...

  3. This is great....the cars were so much cooler than our current ugly monsters....and everyone dressed so well compared to the contemporary decadent style of poverty tourism.

    Maybe it will come back.

    I recently started watching it. I love it! A LOT of money went into this show and it shows. I sometimes have a hard time following the sub-sub plots because, at times, all of the guys look the same. But dig in Marty!

  5. if bloomberg keeps allowing develoipers to destroy the city things like this will no longer be possible.
    one glass and stell monolith in the middle of that beautiful street would totally ruin the whole thing.

  6. Why not just turn the entire EV into a movie studio because that's what it is. I hate it here.
