The production crew for Marvel Studios'
The Avengers is still in the midst of transforming East Ninth Street, of Cleveland, Ohio, into New York City's 42nd Street, for an "epic battle" that'll began filming later in the month. And while we're in for simulated explosions, and cars flipping, 'building debris' props have arrived to the set giving an idea of how "epic" this battle may be.
With special thanks to various Cleveland locals for the images, as well
Midwest Movie Maker, if you have your own images/ scoops that'd you're willing to share, feel free to

Spider-Man 3 was also filmed.
