The Best Gossip Girl Filming Locations
Over five seasons, the daring Upper East Siders and other New York residents of Gossip Girl have walked around, shopped, eaten, gossiped and schemed and had really serious conversations in a myriad of restaurants, apartments and street corners all over New York City. Or mostly just Manhattan. Some of the locations are real – the steps at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Palace, Butter, Grand Central Terminal. Some are pure fiction – Rufus' gallery. Some the Gossip Girl-ers visit only briefly in one episode, in others they hang out pretty often (Communitea, Blair's apartment). Enjoy our guide to the best Gossip Girl shooting locations and next time in New York City don't forget to visit some of them.
XOXO.
