People need to know that the inner track is for wheels so don't casually stroll in there or enter without looking because you WILL get hurt. Also, leash your dogs and children

Brooklyn's largest park . Has nature center with lots of cool programs. Hike through the salt marsh: it's like being in the middle of nowhere. B3 bus stops right there and many other buses are nearby.

Follow the western shoreline south, and you'll soon encounter several rusted out old cars. No idea how the hell they got out there, but they're fascinating subjects for urban ruins photographers .
