The owner of Carrie Bradshaw’s (Sarah Jessica Parker) apartment in “Sex And The City”received authorization to close the site’s iconic staircase with a gate. The information is from The New York Times.
The owner of the site obtained approval from the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission last Tuesday (14). She claimed that she did not imagine that the program would reach such a large legion of fans and that she is often “disturbed” by people who want to take photos and stay in the place.
“At any time of the day or night, there are groups of visitors in front of the house taking photos with flash, talking loudly, posting on social media, making videos on TikToc [sic] or just celebrating the moment,” the owner wrote to the Commission, according to the outlet.
“That house shouldn’t have a gate,” she added, “but unfortunately it needs more protection in our century, in our time. I would wait for literally decades for this to go away, but at this point I think even someone as stubborn as me has to admit that this isn’t going to end in the near future.”
She also added that graffiti had been painted on the steps and door frame.
Ultimately, she said she plans to create a building that “will follow the existing authentic historic style.”
