Really interesting article in the New York Times about two people who were the basis for characters in The Wire and The Corner:

Today I got to see some of The Wire Season 5 being filmed. The set location was in Baltimore City (of course) under 83 on Guilford Ave across from the jail. I did not see any main characters but it was pretty cool to watch none the less. They had a TON of extras and I watched them shot the same basic scene over and over. Look for it in season 5, this is what happened.
White male in grey shirt, jeans, holding a notebook enters the center of the camera. He walks on the sidewalk and down the hill while a blue Oldsmobile turns into the parking lot across the street (yes, everytime they re-shot the scene the Olds had drive down the street and turn into the parking lot, it seemed like a lot to go through for something that was going on in the background of the scene). He walks down the train tracks where two people cross in front of him; the woman is in a white tank top and the man is in a green long-sleeve shirt and he is holding stick.
That's what I saw over and over and over. The scene was much longer but this is the only part I could see. The scene would continue down the slope and behind a wall and they would not let me any closer. I know this is really not much information but I thought I would share. You can see some pictures in my photo section, one of which is attached below. The pictures are nothing special, I had to sneak them all since I was told that no pictures were allowed until after shooting was completed.
