In order to rest from numerous people and noise of thousands of cars, head to Bushwick. Once a prospering industrial district, Bushwick looks quite abandoned nowadays.

Stalkers also enjoy walking in Red Hook and Vinegar Hill. It is not always easy to reach distant quarters, but the result is worth the effort – you will be able to see old and abandoned buildings, the age of many of which is more than a hundred years.
