New York City: East New York

New York City is a million things to a million different people. This is East New York, frequently regarded as one of the worst neighborhoods in Brooklyn, if not in New York City as a whole. The neighborhood can be scary at times, but I'm such a sucker for industrial landscapes, steel structures and urban decay. People tell me I'd have a field day in Detroit. I wish that I had taken advantage of my close proximity when I was in college. I also wish I had something better than a camera phone to take these pictures with, but this will have to do for now.
