Even though I’ve never been to New York, I love the Scout­ing NY blog; a col­lec­tion of often over–looked and unique loca­tions dis­cov­ered by a NYC film loca­tion scout.

The ‘About’ sec­tion says all you need to know:

I work as a film loca­tion scout in New York City. My day is basi­cally spent comb­ing the streets for inter­est­ing and unique loca­tions for fea­ture films. In my trav­els, I often stum­ble across some pretty incred­i­ble sights, most of which are ignored every day by thou­sands of New York­ers in too much of a rush to pay attention. 

As it hap­pens, it’s my job to pay atten­tion, and I’ve started this blog to keep a record of what I see.
