You can find similar backgrounds easily, without the 
vacant building hazards. I personally would not be carrying expensive camera and lighting gear anywhere near a vacant building in NYC, because they are usually not vacant, if you get my meaning.
If you do go to one, plan on bringing significant protection with you. This applies to most cities today, and not just NYC.

Find a nice neighborhood, then travel 5 blocks in any direction. I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for.

Get away from the tourist areas, and you'll find plenty of grit there.
