10 of Brooklyn’s Most Beloved TV and Movie Locations
Coney Island, The Warriors
Another option ripe with recognizable locations all over the city—it’s sort of the premise of the whole movie, after all, and Scouting NY has an excellent, comprehensive rundown—but it still seems fair to say that if there’s a quintessential Warriors location, it’s Coney Island. It’s their home base, the backdrop for the movie’s climatic scene (“I just like doing things like that!”), and anyway, far more fun to visit than, say, the Nostrand Avenue Subway station. Get off at the Coney Island Stillwell station and stagger around as if you’ve just had the longest, bloodiest day of your life. Or at least ride a couple of rides.
