Guessing a combination of Buffalo’s resurgence, production values of our cool old industrial waterfront setting and the NYS film tax credits.

I’m surprised not a single news outlet picked up on this. It’s not exactly subtle when you’re shutting down streets and moving F150’s around dangling under a helicopter.

Are you talking about the crossing at Shadagee?  
If that’s the new bridge in South Buffalo I;m shocked they let them rip that thing up already.

prettu much all of the above. I talked with the production crew at 2 locations. The Central Terminal shoot was sweet.  
The media was told to be silent about the taping to try and keep spectators to a minimum. The only ones that screwed up was the Buffalo News

Ive got some talented friends in this world. They make a shitload and often just burn through projects like these in bender fashion with very little sleep and or contact with the outside world. Feast or famine. The Hoonigan guys are raking it in hand over foot.
