> This was not shot in Battery park. The Statue is just facing the wrong way. Nowhere in Battery Park can you see her from that angle. (I lived there for 5 years) I’m convinced that this is generated. There are no planes flying over, and no boats in the water. There is always constant traffic around there, day and night. Always.

This was not shot at Brooklyn Battery Park but on the Brooklyn Heights Promenade. You can, in fact, see the Statue from the Promenade BUT only from the side, not straight on like in the commercial. So a little from column A and a little from column B.
