Nordhavn is an industrial area that is being developed into a new neighborhood. Interesting for architects or people interested in urban spaces. Try walking up on the big car parking house - nice views.
There is a nice sunny dock right behind Nordhavn St. where you can sit and enjoy the water(take a swim in the closed area) enjoy the views and watch the red S-trains and boats go by. Go exploring and get lost if you like harbour areas.
