The Get Down takes place in New York and includes images of the World Trade Center , built before 1975 and demolished after 2000 .
The series is described as `` a mythic saga of how New York at the brink of bankruptcy gave birth to hip-hop , punk and disco '' , the Sony Pictures Television show takes in Bronx tenements , the SoHo art scene , CBGB , Studio 54 and the just-built World Trade Center ( 1973-2001 ) .
