In the film
David leaves his home in Brooklyn Heights at the start of the trip. The exact house isn’t identified, so this pin marks the neighbourhood.
History in brief
Brooklyn Heights grew up as one of New York’s first commuter suburbs after a steam ferry to Manhattan began in 1814. In 1965 it became the city’s first protected historic district, keeping its rows of 19th-century brownstones.
The place today
Leafy residential streets, with the Brooklyn Heights Promenade giving one of the best views of Lower Manhattan.
