No, Sociale has not turned into a Luncheonette and there’s no Beauty Supply store where the car service used to be!  According to Brownstoner, crews were spotted…in Brooklyn Heights getting ready to film scenes for the adaptation of Jonathan Lethem’s novel “Motherless Brooklyn.  Storefronts on Henry Street between Orange and Pineapple were transformed to make the neighborhood feel like the 1950s, when part of the film takes place. Vintage cars were parked along the street and some extras were dressed in period clothing.
