Photo by myself in Park Slope, Brooklyn.A movie was being filmed outside Grand Prospect Hall, some time ago.
Grand Prospect Hall is a popular locations for weddings and other venues. I haven't gone inside, but a friend of mine did a photoshoot there and said the interiors were absolutely stunning.
The street was partially blocked off and people milled around the set. Movie production entails a lot of waiting around. Movies such as Prizzi's Honor, Cotton Club and Foxy Brown have been filmed here.
As you can see, the exterior of this building has some pretty decoration. It is 140,000 square feet large and was completed in 1892. This was actually the first commercial building in Brooklyn to have electricity!
