Spider-Bots are a collectible in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 that unlock after you complete the Science Buddy Main Story mission. They are the hardest collectibles to find, as they are not marked on your map or HUD. There are a total of three Spider-Bots in the Greenwich district.
While they don’t show up on your map or HUD, Spider-Bots do give a big, bright pulsing signal which is difficult to miss if you’re looking the right way. They also make a quiet pinging sound, but you’re unlikely to hear that unless you’re quite close.
It won’t take long to find each Greenwich Spider-Bot location. Most of these can be done while swinging from one mission to another, but knowing exactly where they are will help you collect them all, as fast as possible.
How to find the Greenwich Spider-Bots
When you find each Spider-Bot, look at it and press Triangle to collect it. Once you’ve pressed triangle, you’ll shoot a web out toward the Spider-Bot and whip it into your inventory. It’ll describe what the Spider-Bot is and where it’s from.
There are loads of references within these collectibles. If you’re a die-hard Spider-Man fan, it’s worth stacking these as you traverse New York City.

Where to find Spider-Bots in Greenwich in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
Greenwich Spider-Bot Location: Spider-Man 2099
The Spider-Man 2099 Spider-Bot is the first you’ll find, or at least it should be. After the conclusion of the Science Buddy mission, it’ll be right there in front of you. In case you somehow miss it, it’s on the roof of a large building northeast of Washington Square Park next to a church.
Greenwich Spider-Bot Location: JJJ
The JJJ Spider-Bot is crawling on a piece of street art depicting John Jonah Jameson Jr. (I count four Js!) as a crying baby. The painting is on the rooftop of the lowest of three buildings in a block on the north side of Greenwich. Aside from the JJJ painting, this is a pretty ordinary, typical New York building, with various stores, bars, and restaurants at the street level.
Greenwich Spider-Bot Location: Flipside
The Flipside Spider-Bot gets its name from the fact that it’s upside down, and this can make it a tricky one to find. It’s on the underside of a kind of portico at the entrance to the large modern art museum (it had MODERN ART written on it in huge letters) near the waterfront in the northwesternmost tip of Greenwich. After a bit of research, I’ve concluded that this building must be Marvel’s Spider Man 2’s tribute to the real-life Whitney Museum of American Art, as the location and architecture are very similar.
Now you’ve found all the Spider-Bots in Greenwich, why not continue your search on the Upper West Side?
