At this point in Pop Pilgrims, we've visited 29 locations, but only at three have we seen many people making their own pilgrimages while we were shooting: the Rocky steps, the park next to Kurt Cobain's house, and Hook And Ladder Company 8, also known as the Ghostbusters firehouse.

During our shoot there on a Saturday afternoon in mid-June, we encountered a steady stream of people stopping, taking photos, and talking to the firefighters inside about the building—not bad for a film that came out 27 years ago. It's a legacy FDNY seems to embrace; inside hangs the sign from the Ghostbusters sequel, and on the sidewalk out front is an FDNY emblem repurposed with a ghost.
