Even though there are 4.85 other boroughs in New York ([[FanonDisContinuity if you count Staten Island]]), Lower Manhattan is used disproportionately often in many films and shows because it's easier to film in; the Financial District empties out like a GhostCity on the weekends. Many of the streets are already blocked off, and there are few residents to complain if an entire neighborhood is overrun by camera crews and catering trucks.

As a result, anything which is nominally set (or could be set) in other parts of the city will still have scenes filmed downtown even though there's no compelling reason for the characters or action to be there. A story about stock brokers makes sense, but for everything else, it's because it's an easy shooting location.

* Interestingly, since 2001, the Financial District has begun developing into a residential area. The [[TheWarOnTerror 9/11 attack]] scared off a number of banks and financial institutions, and the credit crunch of 2008 didn't help either, all leading to a number of buildings standing empty. Residential developers bought and renovated them into luxury apartments, and "[=FiDi=]" (following the [[FunWithAcronyms naming traditions]] of New York neighborhoods that coined [=TriBeCa=] and [=SoHo=]) is now considered an up-and-coming neighborhood, especially for the new generation of yuppies (young lawyers, investment bankers, and the like).
* The Occupy Wall Street demonstrations that spread to the general "Occupy" phenomenon in late 2011 started, [[CaptainObvious obviously]], in the Financial District. However, Occupy Wall Street soon took root not on Wall Street proper (which was quickly barricaded by [[NewYorkCityCops the NYPD]], causing no end of havoc to local residents), but the nearby Zuccotti Park.
