A Film Shoot in Red Hook

Red Hook Film Shoot

If you've ever spent time on Columbia Street in Red Hook, you've possibly noticed the former industrial area that's been partly reclaimed by wetlands vegetation. It's next to the Ikea and is also a great spot for some graffiti and street art. Most of the structures that were in there have been removed and so were the people that once lived there. We're guessing that it won't survive long in its current form with Ikea as its big next door neighbor. In any case, some NYU students were doing a film shoot there while we were wandering around, so we figured we put up a photo of the film shoot, and toss in a shot of the Ikea (with blue exterior going on) and the old tracks on the property.

Looks like the secret is out. I saw it first(?):

Kudos to NYU and the student film movement--make your mark (and leave your stain) on the once-pristine ground of Red Hook. (Watch for it soon--New real estate marketing lingo: Red Hook = ReHo.)
