For fans of the iconic TV series 'Sex and the City', the brownstone at 66 Perry Street is more than just a building; it's a cultural landmark. Though the series places Carrie Bradshaw's apartment on the Upper East Side, exterior shots were primarily filmed here in the charming West Village. From season 3 onwards, 66 Perry Street became the main filming location for exterior shots of Carrie's apartment, chosen for its distinctive and visually iconic staircase. While the interior scenes were filmed at Silver Cup Studios in Queens, the exterior of 66 Perry Street draws a constant stream of 'Sex and the City' fans. The building itself, dating back to 1866, boasts five bedrooms and three bathrooms. Please note that the apartment is privately owned, and visitors are asked to respect the residents' privacy by staying off the steps. While visiting Carrie's apartment, take the time to explore the rest of the West Village, a vibrant neighborhood filled with shops, cafes, and restaurants. A short walk away is the original Magnolia Bakery on Bleecker Street, where Carrie and Miranda famously ate cupcakes in Season 3.
