TROY — HBO’s “The Gilded Age” is set to return this fall to film parts of the series’ third season while possibly moving into new neighborhoods, city officials said Wednesday.

Mayor Carmella Mantello said the city has been informed that crews are expected to be back on city streets and in residences in October or November to film scenes that take advantage of the community’s rich late 19th-century architecture as a stand-in for New York City. Local production on the series was considered an economic boon for the Capital Region.

City and production representatives will be meeting in the near future to discuss production operations in the city, the mayor said. This will be the third season where Troy’s streetscape will be featured in the production set in 1880s New York City and other areas.
