Boardwalk Empire to Take Over Kensington on Monday

Alternate side parking rules may be suspended this weekend for Orthodox Easter and Passover, but no higher power can protect your parking spot from the makers of Boardwalk Empire, which will be filming its third season in Kensington on Monday.

Production vehicles will be arriving on Sunday at 10 p.m., and will require use of the following streets:

• East 5th Street between Church Avenue and Albermarle Road, both sides
• East 5th Street between Beverley Street and Church Avenue, a half-block on the east side closer to Church Avenue
• Church Avenue between Ocean Parkway and East 4th Street, both sides
• Albemarle Road between Ocean Parkway and East 5th Street, south side

The filming itself will be held indoors on Monday from 7 a.m. until 9 p.m.
