The Netflix film has taken up advertising space in an unlikely place.

But you’re not at home watching The Woman in the Window on Netflix. You’re walking down a residential street in Brooklyn. This scenario has been on repeat for about a week now. The first floor windows of a Park Slope brownstone have been overtaken by large screens advertising the new Netflix thriller. They were spotted by Jake Dobkin, publisher of Gothamist, on an evening walk in his Park Slope neighborhood. Dobkin tweeted out his sighting, expressing concern for nearby residents who would be subjected to its lights at night. In an interview, he said that the lights are «pretty bright, like an LCD television on its brightest setting, pressed against the window.» Netflix did not immediately respond to questions about the advertisement, nor did the NYC Department of Buildings.
