5th & Park - Tournée de film et fiction de Carnegie Hill sur le musée Mile
Description
Ma visite à pied de deux heures vous emmène dans une aventure cinématographique et fictive dans le quartier historique de Carnegie Hill à Manhattan, le long du « Museum Mile ». La visite à pied commence sur les marches du Metropolitan Museum (82e et 5e Avenue) et se termine au musée Guggenheim (88e et 5e Avenue). Nous visiterons Central Park à Manhattan, verrons l'impressionnant Andrew Carnegie Mansion (alias The Cooper Hewitt Museum of Design), verrons le manoir de la 5e Avenue où Lady Gaga a fréquenté le lycée et apprécierons le style château gothique français du Jewish Museum tout en découvrant des tonnes de lieux de tournage et de maisons de célébrités.

Itinéraire
La visite à pied se déroule sur les marches du Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Je décrirai les scènes filmées à chaque endroit que nous rencontrons en nous promenant dans Carnegie Hill le long de la 5e Avenue, de Madison Avenue et de Park Avenue. "84 Charing Cross Road", "Six Degrees of Separation", "The House on 92nd Street", "Ransom" et "When Harry Met Sally" ne sont que quelques lieux de tournage que nous visiterons.
Nous verrons les maisons de célébrités et de personnalités littéraires telles que Ralph Lauren, Faye Dunaway, Anthony Bordain, Katie Couric, Stockard Channing, Madeline Kahn, J.D. Salinger, Truman Capote, Marlene Dietrich, Robert Redford, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis et Mike Nichols. .
Vous serez surpris par les superbes peintures murales en vitrail de l'église de Heavenly Rest, où Keanu Reeves rencontre Charlize Theron dans "The Devil's Advocate".
Nous apercevrons une variété d'oiseaux aquatiques habitant l'énorme réservoir Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis à Central Park !
L'ancien manoir d'Andrew Carnegie est aujourd'hui le Cooper Hewitt Design Museum, avec un joli jardin public.
Nous avons un aperçu de l'église Saint-Thomas More, où Andy Warhol et Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis étaient paroissiens à la même époque.
La conception châteauesque de ce musée contient plus de 30 000 pièces d'art juif !
Je vous indiquerai les lieux de tournage de films tels que "The International", "Cactus Flower", "Mr. Poppers Penguins", "Men In Black" et bien plus encore ! Nous admirerons également la fantastique architecture de Frank Lloyd Wright.

terrible. man was extremely full of himself. I wish I never went here. I hated it so much. particularly about his opinion about the barbie movie.
You are a troll. I never took you on my tour. Bless your heart.
Cole was a great tour guide. He was friendly and provided lots of interesting information. We learned a lot. This tour goes well with the Metropolitan Museum of Art tour, as they meet in nearly the same place.
Thank you so much for coming on my tour! I had a blast with you guys! So much fun!
I lucked out with perfect weather when I took Cole Smithey's walking tour of the Carnegie Hill section of the Upper East Side of Manhattan. But it still would've been fantastic in pouring rain. Beginning at the iconic Guggenheim Museum on Fifth Avenue, Cole's connection of architecture, sites where films were made and apartments where legendary film stars lived and still live, along with New York City history in general, helped me to connect to a part of Manhattan with which I previously considered myself very familiar but in reality had barely scratched the surface. Cole's knowledge is encyclopedic and interesting and he is an engaging and affable host. I highly recommend the experience to anyone visiting or local to NYC.
Cole gave a fantastic tour of Carnegie Hill that was full wonderful insight into neighborhood and all the film trivia that is nested within. Any film lover would be delighted and surprised by the great tales and facts that Cole has uncovered through a great amount of research. Highly recommended!
Thanks so much for coming on the tour! It was such a pleasure showing you so many of the great locations in this amazing neighborhood!
Cole's walking tour is great fun. Cole is super knowledgeable about the wonderful Carnegie Hill neighborhood. The reservoir, the museums, the architecture and the rich film history are all interesting. We highly recommend the tour.
Thanks much Mark! Have a great time in NYC!!!
As a devoted fan of walking tours in NYC this one is a highlight. I will now regard Carnegie Hill as a true neighborhood, rather than a walk-through on our way to museums. Cole's knowledge of his area, along with an incredible repertory of information about the history of film making in the area, makes for a fascinating 90 minutes.
Cole Smithey is a wealth of information and gives a great tour of the beautiful Carnegie Hill area of the Upper East Side! While this tour is perfect for movie buffs, it's also a wonderful peak into old New York and highlights architecture, Central Park, multiple museums along the museum mile. You'll hear about Truman Capote, Jackie O, Marilyn Monroe, Woody Allen, and so many more...You'll see the (current and former) personal residences of many celebrities, mansions, churches, and scenes from old and new movies-- All of this while taking in the gorgeous scenery of Carnegie Hill. Cole is also very entertaining and his quick wit and engaging personality make this a must-do for a unique NYC experience.
Thanks Heather for coming on "5th & Park"! I had a great time showing you around Carnegie Hill!
The 5th & Park Film and Fiction walking Tour with Cole Smithey was a one of a kind, not to be missed experience! Cole is extremely informative, entertaining and an enthusiastic guide. This was my first (and hopefully not my last!) trip to NYC and this walking tour was one of the highlights. Cole's exceptional tour introduced and connected me to NYC in a special way through the mediums of film and literature that I would never have experienced without the time spent on his unique walking tour. I loved it! This tour should be on everybody's "to do list" when they visit NYC.
Awesome! So happy you came on the tour, and had a great time. Come again! —Cole
Had such a wonderful time walking around Manhattan's Carnegie Hill District with tour guide Cole Smithey! I was amazed by all the history hidden around every corner and the unique facts and stories that Cole shared! Definitely would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a real look into the history of film in NYC or just anyone wanting to take a beautiful walk while learning more about Manhattan and it's exciting past! Cole is definitely an expert in his field and I enjoyed every minute of my tour!
Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review of my tour! It's such a joy to share Carnegie Hill with you.
This tour is a superior New York City value. If you love film and are interested in all the colorful residents who've called Carnegie Hill home, this is the perfect tour to add to a trip to the Metropolitan Museum. There is a bit of relaxed walking, so be prepared to spend some time on your feet. Make sure you bring your questions, too. Cole knows the neighborhood, and he knows movies!
Thanks so much for coming on the tour Felipe! Each tour is a little bit different, and it was so much fun showing you Carnegie Hill!
