Filming: Durago 95
May 3rd, 2010
Filming dates: May 3-5, 2010 6am-12am
Water Street between Gold and Jay Streets
Front Street between Bridge and Hudson Ave
Anyone know what this filming of “Durago 95″ is? Or is it a misspelling of Durango 95?
[UPDATE: Other signs say "Durango 95". Also, thanks to Mediagoon, it's a commercial: "durago 45 looks like a commercial to me...on the permit the C before the number means commercial. TV is tv, MV music vid. FF-film"]

Does anyone else out there think this constant filming is getting to be a bit much? The City has been, and will continue to allow filming on our streets if we don't speak up. Other neighborhoods have gotten themselves declared a “Hot Zone”, or somehtign similar, and the city stops issuing permits for a period of time. DUMBO had a respite like that several years ago, after locals complained. Anyone else a little tired of the constant filming?

The other signs around do say 'Durango 95'…which means? The Ramones are back together? :) or 'A Clockwork Orange 2'?!

I think Harry is just a hater. I for one love the film crews. The big trucks and the workmen lend a palpable air of excitement to the neighborhood, which pays dividends to those of us who are trying to sell our faux-luxury condos. And I don't think I am alone when I say, just the thought of having a big-time Hollywood movie star walking on these very cobbled streets (oh, I'm sorry, I meant to say Belgian Blocks, which, of course,is the proper name) … but just to think some sexy over-paid talentless hack is breathing the same air …. gives me a chill up my leg and tingles-a-plenty in all the right places. At night, sometimes I wake up screaming with pleasure, “Haddad! Haddad!”

Truman, you're working too hard at the funny. It an't working. Leave the strained attempts at humor to Loose Stools, that's his domain.
