Roosevelt Island is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 2 productions — in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.

“The MacNeil residence interiors were filmed at CECO Studios in Manhattan, with Karras's confrontation with his uncle, shot at Goldwater Memorial Hospital, now the site of Cornell Tech, on Roosevelt Island in the East River between Manhattan and Queens; the scenes with Karras's mother in the hospital were filmed at Bellevue.”

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Roosevelt Island as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Named here by Roosevelt Island’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Roosevelt Island, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
