New York: Top 10 Daredevil locations
Daredevil, New York’s superhero…
Daredevil defends New York at the risk of his life. Follow in the footsteps of the Hell’s Kitchen demon with the New York guide to the 1000 cult places in movies, series, music, comics and novels.
1. Nelson & Murdock
The law firm of Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson) and Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) is not located in Hell’s Kitchen. Instead, you will have to go to Williamsburg to discover this building visible in the series. Its style fits well with that of an office where the two partners have few resources.
Address: 363 S 4th St, Brooklyn, New York, USA
2. Josie’s, Daredevil’s bar
In reality, Matt, Foggy and Karen Page’s (Deborah Ann Woll) favorite bar is in Brooklyn, a long way from Hell’s Kitchen where it’s supposed to be. This is where they like to meet and where Foggy and Karen drink the famous “eel”. Although the façade is quite different from the series, the interior and the atmosphere of the Turkey’s Nest are totally in line with Josie’s bar.
Address: Turkey’s Nest, 94 Bedford Ave, Brooklyn, New York, USA
3. Green-Wood Cemetery
After his abduction, The Punisher is held prisoner in the catacombs of the Green-Wood Cemetery. Daredevil’s coming to free him. They then wait for the police near the Crescent Water Pond. This huge cemetery dating from 1838 has an imposing Gothic double arch at its portal.
Address: 500 25th St, Brooklyn, New York, USA

Address: 166 W 18th St, New York, USA

Address: 851 Grand Concourse, Bronx, New York, USA

Address: 2900 Bedford Ave, Brooklyn, New York, USA
7. Central Park carousel, a ride in Daredevil
Don’t look for the merry-go-round that Castle regularly comes to Central Park to watch! It’s actually in Queens, where it’s part of our heritage. Dating back to 1903, this carousel was brought back from Dracut, Massachusetts in 1972 following the Forest Park fire in 1966. It is one of the last two existing rides built by the Muller brothers.
Address: Forest Park Carousel, Queens, New York, USA

Matt and Karen are finally dining one-on-one in this Indian restaurant with a unique atmosphere. The multitude of coloured lamps gives the place a beautiful romantic atmosphere.
