The climactic final show in the magic caper movie Now You See Me takes place at 5 Pointz in Queens.
The 5 Pointz warehouse had been a premiere showcase for graffiti since 1993. The owner planned to raze the building for condo space, and when the artists began to look into federal protection for their work he had it whitewashed in late 2013.
