I’d love to share some behind the scenes photos of where I envisioned various scenes of Partner Pursuit taking place.

Here’s the corner where I envisioned Audrey and Jake’s cute-meet right outside the corner store.

The Upper West Side also has many side streets filled with brownstones. They are a mix of single-family, two-family and multi-occupant houses. One floor could be an apartment or half a floor could be an apartment. Or you could have duplex apartment with a circular staircase like Audrey. They usually have about 5 floors. The parlor floor usually has eleven-foot ceilings so it can be the most desirable. I love the colorful colors of this row of brownstones on the Upper West Side.

And in another behind the scenes secret, this is the block where we did the photo shoot for my author picture.

Here’s a picture of Levain Bakery. I pictured them stopping by this Levain Bakery as they were bicycling to Riverside Park. It’s closed right now because of the pandemic because it’s an incredibly small space that gets really packed, but they opened up a more spacious Levain Bakery a few blocks north, so not to worry! And you may remember my previous post with a picture of the actual chocolate chip cookies. They weigh the cookie dough before they put in on the tray to make sure each is the right weight.

Partner Pursuit: Behind the Scenes at Fairway

And here’s a picture of Fairway where Jake and Audrey go food shopping. Fairway has the most amazing selection of food.

Let’s Talk

How are you? Are there any other scenes from Partner Pursuit where you’d like to see my inspiration (if any?) Next time, I’ll do their bicycle date up the Hudson River.

Have a great weekend!
