Alec Baldwin is no longer a resident of the Upper West Side, but here’s still finding ways to come back and visit.

Earlier this month he was filming something with Jerry Seinfeld in front of Fairway, and on Friday he headlined a PETA event in Columbus Circle urging people to boycott the Ringling Brothers Circus because of their alleged mistreatment and abuse of elephants.

My friends at OLV have some photos and a brief write-up. There’s some additional coverage from The Daily News as well.

If you’re interested, here’s the video Baldwin narrated for PETA (and here’s the press release from Ringling Brothers in response):
