According to notices posted nearby, Hollywood has set up shop inside One Hanson to film Winter's Tale, starring Colin Farrell, Jennifer Connelly and Russell Crowe.

IMDB.com describes the forthcoming movie as "a fantasy story set in 19th Century and present-day Manhattan that revolves around a thief, a dying girl, and a flying white horse." It is due to be released in 2013.

Word on the street is that filmmakers have redone the interior of One Hanson to resemble Ellis Island. That tip is supported by images of nurses seen milling about on St. Felix in period dress.
