This is one of the more note-worthy spots out of the many little things you'll find throughout the area. Alongside a fairly wide sidewalk, there lies two, metal-edged windowsill ledges: one being around a foot and a half in height, and seven feet long and the other being just as long, only a foot extra in it's height. They're spaced about forty feet from each other, on a decent surface which may not be the best for flatground, but certainly still skateable. The lower ledges grinds and slides better considering the fact its skated more often, but you shouldn't have any problems waxing up the higher one considering the surface is metal. Stop by the UPS building a few blocks away for a pretty good manual pad as well.

You'll never get kicked out of here, and the street is desolate enough for you not to worry about pedestrian traffic. The only thing is, the spot is completely devoid of light at nighttime.

Clarkson Street, in between the Westside Highway and Washington Street, across the street from a strip club called The Carousel. There's really no subways nearby.
