What to expect
The Metropolitan Museum of Art
The walking tour meets on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Carnegie Hill
I'll describe the scenes filmed at each spot we come across while strolling through Carnegie Hill along 5th Avenue, Madison Avenue, and Park Avenue. "84 Charing Cross Road," "Six Degrees of Separation," "The House on 92nd Street," "Ransom," and "When Harry Met Sally" are just a few movie locations we'll visit.
Museum Mile
We'll see the homes of such celebrities and literary figures as Ralph Lauren, Faye Dunaway, Anthony Bordain, Katie Couric, Stockard Channing, Madeline Kahn, J.D. Salinger, Truman Capote, Marlene Dietrich, Robert Redford, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, and Mike Nichols.
Church of the Heavenly Rest
You'll be knocked out by the beautiful stained glass murals in The Church of Heavenly Rest where Keanu Reeves meets Charlize Theron in "The Devil's Advocate."
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir
We'll catch a glimpse of a variety of waterbirds inhabiting the enormous Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir in Central Park!
Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum
Andrew Carnegie's former mansion is now the Cooper Hewitt Design Museum, with a lovely public garden.
Saint Thomas Church
We get a peak at St. Thomas More church where Andy Warhol and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis were parishioners during the same era.
The Jewish Museum
This museum's Châteauesque design contains over 30,000 pieces of Jewish art!
Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum
I'll point out the filming locations of movies such as "The International," "Cactus Flower," "Mr. Poppers Penguins," "Men In Black," and more! We'll also admire Frank Lloyd Wright's fantastic architecture.
