Unforgettable TV Production Crew Returning To Roosevelt Island Tomorrow With More Nightime Shooting - Duvateen Cloth Available For Protection From Intense Lights Shining Into Your Apartment Reports RIOC

 Unforgettable TV Production Crew Light Scaffolding at 504 Main Street

Reported on July 30 that the production crew for the new CBS television program Unforgettable was causing discomfort and sleeping problems for some Roosevelt Island residents. Here's what it was like for two Roosevelt Islanders:

... The movie shoot in 504 lasted all night including bright lights into the apts in 510 and 531 until after 2 a.m. on Thus/Fri and Fri/Sat....

and:

... On Thursday night, the crew set up enormous lights which were aimed into apartments at 510 Main Street and into apartments at the South wing of 531 Main Street. The lights were so intense that their beams penetrated tightly shut venetian blinds, bounced off the walls in apartments, and caused extreme discomfort to the residents all through the night. Calls to Public Safety were useless, as the people on phone duty had no idea this was going on, nor did they seem interested or able to help....

Be advised that the Unforgettable Production Crew will be back tomorrow. According to the Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC):

Beginning tomorrow, August 11th, a film crew will be shooting in 504 Main Street.

We are working hard to minimize the effect of the lights at night.  If the lights bother you - please let us know and crew members will hang duvateen, a lightweight black cloth, in your windows.  Hanging the duvateen will not damage any surfaces and it is simple to remove.

If you'd like duvateen hung, please contact Dave at 505-920-7245 to arrange.

Dates of filming are as follows:
August 11, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18.

Several trucks will be parked on Blackwell Plaza for the duration of the shoot.

We appreciate your cooperation.

Sincerely,

Roosevelt Island Operating Corp Advisories Group
