New York is the most-filmed city on Earth after Los Angeles, and it never plays a supporting role - the city is a character in its own films. From the brownstones of the Upper West Side to Central Park, Times Square and the Brooklyn Bridge, 246 titles in our database map to its streets, including The Godfather, The Sopranos and Seinfeld.
Some of its locations are pilgrimage sites in their own right: Katz's Delicatessen (When Harry Met Sally), the Friends apartment building in the West Village, the Ghostbusters firehouse in Tribeca and the Central Perk-era coffee shops. Most are reachable on foot or by subway - the map shows precisely where each scene was shot.
