Brooklyn College

The original Georgian-style buildings, elm tree–lined main quad, and lily pond of Brooklyn College were built in the 1930s, and today film and TV crews regularly use the bucolic campus as a location stand-in for Ivy League schools. It's especially beautiful in spring when the cherry blossoms are in bloom. Get a visitor’s pass from any security post or sign up for an hour-long guided tour (10 am and 3 pm most weekdays).
