In The Press: FOX Television Looks To Alpine As Filming Locale

The Northern Valley Suburbanite featured Rio Vista Alpine in an article by Amy McKenna, titled “FOX Television Looks To Alpine As Filming Locale.” The FOX television network is taking the necessary steps to seek approval from the Mayor of Alpine to film a pilot television show located at 44 Rio Vista Drive in Alpine, NJ.

The pilot show, “Lights Out” will be a drama, directed by Clark Johnson and starring Holt McCallany, about a former heavy weight boxing champion, struggling with his life after his days in the ring are over. More information on the upcoming FOX drama series can be found at FOX Broadcasting.

The article also features the Stone Clock Tower, known to some as the “Devil’s Tower”. The tower was originally built by Manuel Rionda, for his wife, whose spirit is also rumored to haunt the tower and its surrounding areas. Rio Vista restored the tower in 1984 during it's development of Rio Vista Alpine. The Stone Clock Tower now welcomes people as they enter the Rio Vista Section of Alpine.
