View Full Version : Where in NYC Were the Opening/Ending Credits Filmed? catlover79 09-23-2009, 01:16 AM What were the specific locations/streets? Anyone know? JamesG 09-23-2009, 02:37 AM After some digging I was only able to find one from the intro. The building that is supposed to be The Jeffersons' apt. complex, the Colby East, is located at 185 East 85th Street in Manhattan. That's the building you see the taxi cab pull into, then The Jeffersons' walk inside the door, and the camera pans up at the building at the end. treky 09-23-2009, 03:56 AM and I think it was really an office building. JamesG 09-23-2009, 01:35 PM and I think it was really an office building. I'm not sure but you may be right. I have to check to see what was/is in that spot... catlover79 09-23-2009, 07:51 PM Thanks! I wonder where the fountains were located that they showed in the ending credits. JamesG 09-24-2009, 04:14 AM I have to check to see what was/is in that spot... The real "Colby East" is in fact an apt. complex in NYC called The Park Lane. I found their realtor page here where they mention that it is the fictional home of The Jeffersons - http://www.cityrealty.com/nyc/manhattan/the-park-lane-185-east-85th-street/6058 JamesG 09-24-2009, 04:19 AM Thanks! I wonder where the fountains were located that they showed in the ending credits. The apt. complex is the only one I know for certain. I have general ideas of the other locations but I want to make sure that they are correct. If you noticed from the intro. after the moving truck turns the corner you can see the street signs in the shot. I tried to take a screen capture off of YouTube and zoom in as much as possible with computer apps. but no luck. It's way to blurry to see it clearly. catlover79 09-24-2009, 11:12 AM The real "Colby East" is in fact an apt. complex in NYC called The Park Lane.

Which means that building in NYC is not really a TV landmark BigManMike 01-11-2026, 05:25 PM I saw that building when I visited NYC in July 2023 and made sure to get a picture of it. |
