Reply to comment by uey-tlatoani in People sitting in Parked Cars at all hours of the day? by uey-tlatoani
It's pretty not cool in some ways. They've continually told people that instead of parking on certain streets, they can park in the bike lanes on Spruce/Pine. They've taken over a park (Fitler Square), put up some tents for a scene, and then put up signs assuring residents that it's just for filming, their neighborhood is not actually being sullied by the homeless. And the other day I saw one of the security people tell a few pedestrians that they couldn't walk down a certain street, even though there didn't seem to be anything going on there. If I lived closer to it I'd be blowing up the CP's office phone. Who agreed to this mess? I understand that there is some kind fo film office to facilitate things like this but it's gone on way too long and not worth it unless they've given the city millions and millions of dollars.

And that's when you tell them to fuck off and just keep walking. Not like they're allowed to do shit. I walked through all the sets that were constantly being shot in that area for like 5 years.

The only time they dont let u on the street is during active shooting. Between takes they dont care.

I walked up 21st and 22nd while they were filming on and off and they told me a bunch of times not to walk through there while they had enormous piles of trash sitting on the sidewalk like clowns.
I'm not even a hardass, they didn't care and neither did I.

I live on Spruce and 23rd, they were filming directly in front of my building. When I had to get home with groceries they let me walk right through.
