Sacha Baron Cohen, famous for the shock-comedy movies Borat and Brüno, has been filming a new movie entitled The Dictator in Brooklyn for some time now, and a new tenement-style apartment facade (or is it the back? I’m not sure) has popped up on Kent Avenue on the waterfront, reports The Gothamist.

There’s no word on how long it will be there, so it’d be a good idea to go visit sooner rather than later. While you’re there, you can also see how much Williamsburg has changed. An area once known for its slaughterhouses and brick factories is now wash with glass and steel condos (and one of our agents would be happy to give you a tour!), not to mention the trendy restaurants and boutique shops that have transformed the ‘burg into the trendiest neighborhood in NYC (and arguably the world).

I, for one, am more interested in the movie being filmed there. No word on when filming will complete, let alone when the movie will come out, but I’m sure NYC will feature prominently in the flick. It often does.
