For the past four years, I’ve worked as a New York City location scout finding locations for feature films. I’ve been pretty much everywhere at this point, from the highest rooftops to the deepest subway tunnels, from abandoned ruins to zillion-dollar luxury penthouse apartments.

What always amazes me about New York is how much there is to see if you pay attention. Every street has a hidden gem or two, and yet they go largely ignored by thousands of passersby daily who simply don’t have the time to look around them.

As it happens, my entire job consists of looking, and I’ve started this blog to keep a record of what I see.

    Scout- I just finished after a couple of weeks, off and on again, reading your entire blog! And alas, here I am at the end. What a wonderful experience it has been. Thank you for sharing! And come visit us in Sunnyside Gardens, Queens in the middle of the summer on a cool evening and you’ll feel transported to an English village in the woods a mile and a half away from midtown Manhattan. Best regards!
