Cab Ride Home, New York | MCU: Location Scout

Jessica and Alisa exiting a cab by the park.

Please get off your phone. That’s dangerous.

Jessica decides to spirit Alisa away from the Malus house, and they take a cab ride back to her apartment. Unfortunately, her mother screams at the cab driver, and they need to get out earlier than expected, near a park.

For the scene driving around in the cab, the vehicle is heading eastbound on Borden Avenue in Long Island City, from 5th Street. The train yards can be seen outside Alisa’s window, and the large municipal building in the middle of Borden can be seen out the back window.
