I was walking down Varick Street in Manhattan and noticed NBC-TV’s Lipstick Jungle’s trucks, indicating they were shooting on location nearby. I know it was Lipstick Jungle because they had a New York Mayor’s Office of Film Theatre & Broadcasting filming permit and had posted MOFTB / NYPD “no parking” signs around the area. The name of the production filming is always on the “no parking” signs.

If you are planning on shooting on location on New York City city property (i.e. streets / sidewalks / curb spaces or if you are shooting on private property and will be running cable across same …or need to clear parking…) in New York City (which includes the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island), you will need a City of New York Mayor’s Office of Film Theatre & Broadcasting (MOFTB) film permit. You should probably hire a local location scout or location manager to complete this paperwork for you.

It used to be when you wanted to film in New York City Parks (i.e. Central Park, Prospect Park (Brooklyn), etc, you had to do a little detective work to find the number for the manager of the park in question (short of having an (as far as I know) unpublished list of the different districts and the managers of the parks in those districts) and call that manager for verbal permission to film in the park which he/she managed.
