TIS -

The address "309 West 43rd Street" was only mentioned in the movie....the building was never shown.

The hallway in which Luca took his last walk was shown only briefly.....the scene was somewhat dark, possibly as a prelude of what was to come, just as the fishes on the door he entered were a prelude. (Damn....I forgot to take a pic of that).

I figured if anyone would appreciate the Ellis Island pic, you would. Ellis Island is now being used as a museum for immigration. Its quite chilling to visit and wonder what our ancestors must have thought when they first walked through its cavernous rooms. From what I understand its pretty much the same now as it was 100 years ago. (Its only about a 1/2 mile north of the Statue of Liberty, so the scene in which young Vito looks out the window and sees the Statue is real).
