Every map I've ever seen of NYC shows part of NJ since it's part of the metropolitan area. This is a typical map of lower Manhattan, showing New York Harbor, the Hudson river and the eastern part of Jersey and yes, they often have that level of detail. It's an extremely common sort of map--I was in NYC today and used a map that was basically the same. There's nothing weird or unusual about it, per se; just the odd red markings. For that, however, I won't discount that it may be a clue to something.

EDIT/ I stand corrected; I'm looking at the details in the teaser and the left side is, I believe, lower Manhattan, while the right side is upper Manhattan, showing part of the Bronx and the Harlem river. The strip down the middle of the map is a gazetteer, which is just a list of streets, places of interest, corresponding to places on the map's grid. That means that the hand-drawn red markings are actually around the Lower East Side. At any rate, it's still just a normal map, even though it doesn't show Jersey; though this is just a map of Manhattan itself (and not all NYC), so that makes sense.

Question,
Is it possible that the markings on the map where filming locations?

Also could it be the reason nothing new has come out is because this is an ARG but with the speed we have been finding this stuff there trying to smooth everything out before they let us go at it?

Just a thought.

hanzo, that's interesting. Two thoughts:

1) I thought that was a snowboard, not a skateboard, on the wall. Either way, it would make sense that his board might be retired and turned into decoration if he'd stopped using it.

2) It's also interesting that Rob responded to you concerning skating at all. It indicates to me that perhaps that's a significant piece of information. I mean, maybe not, too.... but still.

kingpin, great map disection. I noticed from Google maps that the three red markings in your bottom green-squared map correspond to East River Drive, the Brooklyn Bridge, and possibly the Manhattan Bridge in lower manhattan, but that the red markings higher up on the map do not correspond to nearby streets (not obviously, at any rate). If the map were actually two or three maps, however, that would explain the discrepancy.

So where do you think the rest of the left side of the map represents?

there are a few things in the trailer that seem out of place, like the guy with the weird mouth. there is that one frame zoom in and out as the camera holder comes up onto the roof which zooms into a drawing on the wall of an adjacent building of an odd looking person or creature.
graphiti etc. they have i am pretty sure all been mentioned before but there must be something here we are just not seeing, i'm repeating myself in the hope it suddenly becomes clear.
