About the SATC reboot On the trail of "Sex and the City" through New York
It was the series news of the year: "Sex and The City" is being rebooted. The reboot of the cult series is called "And Just Like That" and is currently being filmed in New York!
Only one thing hurts: Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte have to do without Samantha - Kim Cattrall is no longer starring in the ten episodes of the new mini-series. And since we don't yet know when we'll see the reboot, we're taking a look back at the most important SATC filming locations in New York - as sightseeing tips for the next New York trip, which we hope won't be long in waiting either have to:
Stand on the steps at Carrie Bradshaw's once
Sarah Jessica Parker's columnist and main character, Carrie Bradshaw, reportedly lived on the Upper East Side (245 East 73rd St.), but that address doesn't exist. If you want to stroll through Carrie's supposed residential area and get a feel for the neighborhood, you'll find it around where 73rd Street crosses 2nd Avenue. The actual filming location is much further south, in Greenwich Village. The steps to the front door of 66 Perry Street have served as Carrie Bradshaw's steps for years, which came in handy for her actress because Sarah Jessica Parker lives just down the street in real life 1866, which often causes confusion among tourists. 1866 is the year of construction. The other ladies' television addresses were: 300 Gansevoort Street (Samantha), 700 Park Avenue (Charlotte), and 331 West 78th Street (Miranda). However, none of these addresses actually exist.
Eat cupcakes once in the "Magnolia Bakery".
It's just a few steps from Carrie's house to Magnolia Bakery, one of the popular gossip places about sex. When you face Carrie's fictional front door, turn right, walk to the next corner, and turn right onto Bleecker Street. After a few meters on the right you are there. Phew, after all that effort you deserve a cupcake! Magnolia Bakery is famous for its cupcakes, but that's more down to clever marketing and placement in shows like this or movies like The Devil Wears Prada than the cupcakes' taste. So be careful: As famous as these things are, they are also cute. Essentially, they taste like pure sugar mixed with a pound of butter and added a little sweetener just to be safe. If you still want to try it, just to be on the safe side, don't buy more than one. If it tastes good, you can always buy more - if you have the nerve to queue in front of a pastry shop. At certain peak times, the rush is so great that a bouncer regulates admission.
Have a drink once in the "Scout".
So that the constant talk about sex in the series didn't get boring, the girls often changed locations. One of her hangouts was Scout, which is called Onieals Grand Street in the real world (174 Grand Street). The walk from Magnolia Bakery to O'Nieals takes about half an hour. If you don't want to take the taxi, bus, or subway and want to take the walk, walk back down Bleecker Street the way you came from, which is Perry Street. But this time do not turn off there, but go straight ahead until you come to 6th Avenue (Avenue of the Americas) and turn right (south) onto it. Where Avenue of the Americas meets Grand Street, turn left (east) to the intersection where Grand Street, Baxter Street and Center Market Place meet. Onieals is a fine eatery with white tablecloths.
By the way: Just a few blocks north of the Onieal is Little Italy, just as close to the south is Chinatown. The Puck Building from the "Will & Grace" series is also just a few minutes' walk away.
Buy shoes once in Carrie's favorite store
Ultimately, of course, it's just a cliché that women talk about sex all the time, and of course that wasn't all Carrie Bradshaw spent her time doing. Of course, she also bought shoes. Many. expensive Namely with Manolo Blahnik. That's a lot further north at 717 Madison Avenue. If you're going to be walking by then, you'll need your new shoes sorely.
By the way: In the vicinity of Manolo Blahnik there are many other exclusive shops, as well as the famous St. Patrick's Cathedral and the Rockefeller Center, which is home to the studios of NBC, among others.
