Reminder about that simulated explosion tonight on Avenue B

As previously noted, crews are filming scenes for "A.K.A Jessica Jones" — under the working title "Violet" — tonight on Avenue B… where there will be a simulated explosion some time between 7 p.m. and 11 p.m. for the Marvel Netflix series…

And Dave on 7th points out that Vazac's/7B/Horseshoe Bar at East 7th Street looks to be the lucky recipient of the FX this evening …

Please never mind the explosion tomorrow night on Avenue B

Please never mind the explosion tomorrow night on Avenue B

The last time that we paid attention to "Violet" filming around the neighborhood, lead actress Krysten Ritter was falling into some trash outside Sophie's on East Fifth Street (for a scene in the Marvel Netflix series).

The show — "A.K.A Jessica Jones" under the working title "Violet" — will be filming around Tompkins Square Park again tomorrow evening. Which you may hear about.

Several EVG readers shared this via Notify NYC today:

Tomorrow, July 7th, there will be a simulated explosion in the vicinity of Avenue B between East 6th Street and East 7th Street in Manhattan. The stunt will occur once between 6:00 PM and 11:00 PM. NYPD and FDNY will be on site.
