In the Movie

Scene where exterior views of streets and plazas associated with the TV network are shown; the familiar environment of Fifth Avenue and Midtown helps establish where the research staff works and transports office conflicts to real corporate Manhattan, as characters walk through the bustling public space around the complex.

In Reality

The scene was filmed in the large Midtown complex with office towers, plazas, and the famous skating rink area, bounded by Fifth Avenue and surrounded by dense corporate and retail activity. The scale of the place, its clean geometry, and constant pedestrian flow make it a plausible stand-in for the external world of a powerful media company.
