Street in Brooklyn Heights filled with '60s cars for Tom Hanks movie

If anyone needs me, I've taken a time machine to 1970s Washington DC. NW 14th Street, specifically.

Huge steering wheels, awesome engines. I had a 57 Chev. for a few years, back in early 60's. The old turquoise and white model.
Drove thru Texas in Jan. of 1964, 25 cent hamburgers the size of a frisbee, gas was something like 25 cents a gallon.
