About those fireworks last night on the East River

We received a lot of queries last night about the fireworks display that went off last night after 9 on the East River below the Williamsburg Bridge. 

There wasn't any notification about them (as everyone pointed out, this account has one job) ...

Today is 10/12 and there are no official fireworks scheduled.

Which prompted plenty of tweets... and concern!

Myles Miller of NBC New York got the scoop today from the FDNY: The fireworks marked the end of filming the fifth and final season of "The The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel."
