Prep work continues this afternoon for filming scenes of the second season of the FX series "Feud: Capote and the Women" ... on Seventh Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue...
... and Sixth Street between Avenue A and First Avenue...
As previously noted... according to Variety, Ryan Murphy's anthology series "follows the true story of how Truman Capote (Tom Hollander) was friends with numerous members of New York high society until he published excerpts of his unfinished novel 'Answered Prayers,' with the excerpts serving as a tell-all about the city's elite."

The cast includes Demi Moore as Ann Woodward, Diane Lane as Slim Keith, Calista Flockhart as Lee Radziwill, Naomi Watts as Babe Paley, ChloĆ« Sevigny as C. Z. Guest and Molly Ringwald as Joanne Carson. Gus Van Sant is directing all eight episodes.

  1. I wish our neighborhood really had
    these businesses. And a penny arcade
    to boot. It would be better
    than all the smoke shops.

  2. Can't wait for the crusty commenters to bemoan the age of crap cars on street and dubious businesses.

    1. Yeah, unlike now with smoke shops and shitty college bars every block and cars practically made of plastic

  3. ahh! Many years ago I lived in the apartment in the fourth photo (window next to the 'rooms to let' sign). Good times!
    I always love it when the film crews transform a block into another era.
