boardwalk empire process

over christmas vacation, i watched the entire first season of boardwalk empire at my parents' house. i really liked it! i can't wait for season 2. here's a little peek into their process of creating all the old-timey stuff. its really mesmerizing.

bonus links:
the show's boardwalk set lives in greenpoint, brooklyn. (and now i do, too!)
want to know what else is filming in brooklyn?

does anyone know where that crazy suburban-y neighborhood where the poor people live is, irl?
