I like Rhododendrons but they are lollipops for deer.
Welfare Island was its name before it was named Roosevelt Island in the 70's and was a no visitors allowed Smallpox? Hospital. You can see the parking structure in the background from Godfrey's office site at the beginning and end of the movie. The garage was connected to the QBB via the westbound lower level outer lane. I think it was torn down in the 70's.
