Coming to America FILMING LOCATIONS Then and Now
In this video you will see the New York City Movie Locations from the 1988 Classic Comedy. First up is the apartment building area that was used several times throughout the film. Where Eddie Murphy shouted “good morning my neighbors” from the fire escape, and loudly sang “To Be Loved” in the street. The Barber Shop was down stairs on the bottom level, you will see the inside as well as the outside. Next up is the McDowell's restaurant location, which has been completely transformed: from the Soul Glo sign to the golden arcs. Then we will go to the park promenade where Lisa and Akeem walked along the East River and gave some pocket change to the Duke Brothers lol. We will then go inside Hoyt Schermerhorn Station to see the place Akeem vowed to renounce his throne for Lisa's marriage. Finally wrapping up with the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, where the King and his entourage depart to head back to Zamunda.
Enjoy
