In the Movie

The scene where a street scene in Manhattan occurs, related to the film's striking stunt, uses the bustling Fifth Avenue area near the complex to show the effect and public shock of the incident amidst ordinary midtown traffic.

In Reality

The scene was filmed at the large Rockefeller Center complex in midtown Manhattan, known for its Art Deco buildings, NBC studios, and plazas along Fifth Avenue. The block between West 49th and 50th Streets is a busy corridor with constant car traffic, wide sidewalks, and prominent storefronts, suitable for staged street action.
