One that most NYCers know about because it's referenced quite a bit. Wikipedia also listed Miranda from Sex and the City living there at one point. I do wonder why it's so popular. Will and Grace and 30 Rock I can understand, they're both made for NBC, maybe NBC uses the location often? But the Mad Men reference was weird. Somebody on the show must have lived there or knew someone who lived there, how else would they know it no longer exists but once did? Riverside must be a really popular street.

Either the co-op that runs 160 started to get tired of 30 Rock fans having their pictures taken outside or asked they for too much money as a location fee, so the production comapny moved down the street.
