Friends needs no introduction. Any praise for this show would be reductive here, so you can skip straight to the point: where is the building with the flats of Monica and Joey and Chandler?
Its location is real - just as in fiction - in Greenwich Village. Historic home of alternative and avant-garde cultural movements, The Village is now one of the liveliest parts of Manhattan, frequented by artists, students at New York University, Wall Street brokers, celebrities (living or have lived in the Village, among others, Bob Dylan, Simon & Garfunkel, Uma Thurman ). The palace of
Friends is right on the corner of Bedford Street and Grove Street. The magic, however, ends here: if riusciste to get in, you will not find the apartments that you see on the show, nor, wandering in the neighborhood, you never come across a club called Central Perk. Everything was in fact designed and built the set, in the Hollywood studios.
