The Journey
Park Avenue Viaduct & Grand Central Terminal

Visit the exterior of the building used to portray Constance Billard School for Girls in Gossip Girl, a prestigious all-girls private school on the Upper East Side. While the interior shots may have been filmed elsewhere, the building's facade is instantly recognizable to fans of the show. Imagine the Blair Waldorfs and Serena van der Woodsens of the fictional world gracing these steps, and delve into the fascinating world of elite education in New York City.
Constance Billard School Steps (Fictional)
Stand on the metaphorical steps of Constance Billard School, the iconic lunch spot from Gossip Girl, a place of pivotal moments and dramatic social maneuvering.

Feel the echoes of their schemes, alliances, and betrayals as you imagine the intricate social web woven on these very steps, immersing yourself in the heart of Gossip Girl's Upper East Side world.
The 'L' Word Location (Fictional)
Relive the romantic tension and dramatic declaration where Chuck Bass famously uttered the 'L' word to Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl. Although the exact location may be fictional or a composite, seek out similar iconic New York spots—perhaps a picturesque park, a grand hotel lobby, or a sophisticated restaurant—that evoke the same atmosphere of romance and high-stakes emotion. Imagine the scene unfolding against the backdrop of the city's glittering skyline, capturing the essence of their complex love story.
The Empire Hotel (Chuck Bass's Hotel)
Experience the luxurious Empire Hotel, famously known as Chuck Bass's hotel since Season 3 of Gossip Girl. While the show may have added a layer of fictional grandeur, The Empire Hotel is a real-life upscale establishment boasting elegant accommodations, a stylish rooftop bar, and a prime location near Lincoln Center.
