Some Instagrammers spied Steven Spielberg filming his new project “The Papers” in Brooklyn Heights this week.

The political drama, centered around the battle to publish the Pentagon Papers, stars Tom Hanks as Washington Post editor Bed Bradlee and Meryl Streep as publisher Katharine Graham.

The 19th century houses of Brooklyn Heights are apparently filling in for 1970s Georgetown — 104 Willow Street, pictured above, got a temporary new address for the occasion.
