special jurisdictions
There are a few frequently requested locations within the city which are under the jurisdiction of other governmental bodies and are NOT available on our permit, and require special permits. Here are two major exceptions:

The Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) arranges shoots involving the use of subway stations, trains or buses. You must make arrangements well in advance, from one to three weeks or more, with the MTA. The Transit Authority’s Special Events Unit will provide you with an estimated cost for your request.

The Port Authority arranges all shoots at all airports, the PATH trains, and certain piers, bridges and tunnels.

The Mayor’s Office of Film, Theatre & Broadcasting has extensive contacts for locations not directly available through our permit. This includes government buildings, parks and landmarks under state or federal jurisdiction, as well as many key privately owned locations.
