But as an aside - Ellis Island, though a significant character in GF2, was never actually used for filming... those "Ellis Island" scenes were shot in Italy...! (The image you show above, the statue of liberty was actually superemposed!)
I didn't know that. Now I hafta figure out if the reflection is correctly imaged
And I tell you, when I took the pic of 309 W 43rd a few years ago, I surely don't remember it being so ornate! They must've renovated!! 
I had also taken a pic similar to yours (from across the street) which showed the "Parking" sign on the right hand side of the building. When I reviewed it I deleted it figuring you already had a pic like that.
