For the last couple of days, Welcome2TheBronx has had the pleasure of checking out the set and filming of the popular Fox TV Crime Drama ‘Gotham’ based on the Batman franchise.

The Old Bronx Courthouse is serving as the main location set (although we can’t tell you what the scenes are, you’ll have to find out yourself when season 2 begins next month!) with a small scene being shot behind the old Hupfel Brewery on St. Ann’s Avenue.

Earlier this year we toured the Old Bronx Courthouse with the location team for ‘Law and Order’ which used the old landmark building for several scenes and in 2007 it was also the site for the film ‘American Gangster’.

Last year, Welcome2TheBronx was able to capture scenes from Netflix’s hit series, ‘Orange is the New Black‘ thanks to Elena ‘Mamarazzi’ Marrero who was able to shoot some great pics while filming for the 3rd season of the show which was released earlier this summer.

Check back for more pics as the day progresses! We’re headed back to the set!
