Default NYC crew, can you help me out?

Theres a spot somewhere near the Broklyn Bridge that i want to go take a picture of my car at. I believe someone had taken some shots of their car on CL down there. Anyways, i was playing Gran Turismo 4 the other night and did a photoshoot at that same location. Below is what looking out at the bridge would look like.........anyone know how to get to or what the address of where this place is?

That area is probably the one of the nicest, and most affluent, area of brooklyn. Basically, just find a street called "Cadman Plaza" and drive twds the brooklyn bridge - very easy to find.

You can't physically drive onto the pier like pictured since theres huge boulders preventing your car to go onto it...But you can take a picture just outside of the pier....d

Cadman Plaza exit on the Gowanus Expway.....
