The latest set report on
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them from Pottermore revealed a few tantalising details about the New York City street where key scenes for the first installment will be shot, including around Tina and Queenie Goldstein's apartment building on the Lower East Side. More on that below.
Quote:
We made it to the interior set of Tina and Queenie Goldstein’s apartment less than an hour before it was taken down. I sat on their beds, stroked their sofa, picked up their books and looked into their mirrors.
Quote:
We start on the Lower West Side where the bricks are filthy, the posters are peeling off the concrete walls and most things are light brown, dark brown or in-between brown. All the signs and posters were designed by extraordinary graphic design double-act Mina Lima.
Quote:
Oh, the street lights! They’re actual, real, functioning street lights - great big black structures built eight metres into the ground so they don’t sway or fall on anyone important.
Quote:
There are several cobbled streets, and if you stand in the right spot you can see all the way from the Lower West Side to the Upper East Side.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them's first installment, written by Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling and starring Eddie Redmayne as Newt Scamander, hits theaters in November 2016.
