The Black Box Returns To Ditmas Park Next Week

Nora Whelan -


The Black Box, ABC’s drama starring Vanessa Redgrave and Kelly Reilly, will be back to filming in the neighborhood next Wednesday over several local blocks. A sign we spotted asks Ditmas Parkers to move their vehicles off the following blocks by 6am on Wednesday, April 2:

  • Both sides of Rugby Road between Beverley and Cortelyou Roads
  • Both sides of Beverley Road between Argyle and Marlborough Roads
  • The east side of Argyle Road, all the way from between Beverley to Dorchester Roads

A letter posted as of this morning from production specifies filming will take place from approximately 2pm on April 2 to midnight. If your car has been towed, call the NYPD Tow Pound at 311 or 212-971-0778, and if you have concerns about moving, construction, or other conflicting issues on the specified blocks, please call the Location Department ahead of time at 718-906-2188 to make special arrangements.

The Black Box has been filming frequently around our area since October 2013. Its scheduled premiere is  Thursday, April 24 at 10pm, and you can see some previews of the show here.
