Confused Glasweigians have taken to twitter to question why some Glasgow streets looked like the Big Apple today.
Several streets have been cordoned off to make way for the filming of a new Sky Atlantic series starring Benedict Cumberbatch.
As reported by the Evening Times, the Sherlock star himself will be appearing in Glasgow this weekend to film scenes for his role in the mini-series, Melrose.
Several yellow taxi cabs have been spotted in the city aswell as American flags and payphones.
Seems Bothwell Street is more #NewYork than #Glasgow today. @Glasgow_Live @TheEveningTimes @peoplemakeGLA pic.twitter.com/68JnTicjdj
