Rescue Me Filming on Roosevelt Island's Subway Pier Last Night
You Tube video of Rescue Me Intro
Did you notice all the equipment, lights and people hanging around the Subway Pier last night and wonder what was going on? I did and wandered down there around 11 PM to see scenes from one of my favorite television programs being filmed. Rescue Me, which is about the lives of New York City Firefighters starring Dennis Leary, was using the Pier for nighttime shots of Manhattan. Story line did not involve Roosevelt Island but the views of Queensboro Bridge, East River and Manhattan skyline were great.
Roosevelt Island 360 was there too and has this nice photo of nighttime Rescue Me filming East River waterfront and Manhattan skyline from Roosevelt Island's subway pier.

What's with the random "Do not cross" tape that can be found from the subway all the way to Manhattan Park on the water front? Yesterday afternoon one was hung just before the hill going down (right after the pier) and blocked the way for many. But you could just go around the tree and proceed as usual. It kind of sucked for wheel chair users, strollers, etc. who could not cross the grass to get around the tree.
I think it's because they have been painting the railings and such.
