coney island is my happy place
Coney Island isn’t a thing of the past. It’s a working, breathing cultural zone where New York goes to exhale. Beach, boardwalk, amusements, immigrant history, working class recreation and creative rebellion all collide here.
I ran a shop on the boardwalk for 21 years. Every season, every crowd, every fight to preserve it’s magic- I’ve seen how deeply this neighborhood lives in people.
