New Jack City

Every so often you watch an old movie and recognize where it was filmed, even if you didn't when you first saw it. New Jack City had a run on HBO recently and sure enough I knew where the "wedding" scene took place. The third photo shows where the gunfight with the Italians was shot. A quick look at IMDB confirms this.

Grant's Tomb at 122 street is a striking memorial, especially when you look at photos of when it was first built and for the opening ceremonies. Now it's somewhat forgotten, but it's well worth a visit. Unfortunately the hours aren't the most convenient.
