Fun Facts

• For more information on the undead cab driver usage of this location, check out Spook Central's Shot On Site article.
• The Undead Taxi Driver location is a block away from the Ray with Trap location.
• The Ecto-1 was parked a block away from where the taxi was parked on Madison Ave. While it was in this spot, outside of the Truffles Cafe, it was used for the Ecto-1 Rejects Parking Ticket deleted scene, and photos were taken of the three original Ghostbusters in front of it. One photo used on the cover of Time magazine in the film, another on the cover of Globe magazine in the film, while two more are common promo photos. For full details on the usage of Ecto-1 at this spot, check out Spook Central's Shot On Site article.
• For the Ecto-1 Rejects Parking Ticket deleted scene, the car was tecnhically parked in front of 700 Madison Avenue, but I credit the more prominent Truffles Cafe next door.

Tom & Jerry: The Movie (2021)
The background plates for the scene with Tom and Jerry careening through the streets on a skateboard were filmed in New York City on Madison Avenue, by the spot where the businessman got a ride from an undead cabbie in Ghostbusters. The Viand Coffee Shop is the key to tying this all together.

Purchase Tom & Jerry: The Movie (2021) on Blu-ray (reviewed here) and DVD.
