Looks like Covid pushed the expansion back a year....

Didn't know Deno's was expecting another attraction. Good for them. https://www.denoswonderwheel.com/phoenix-roller-coaster PHOENIX Family Thrill Roller Coaster rising at Deno’s for 2021 Season. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/c...ng?format=750w https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/c...pg?format=750w |
that new coaster at deno's, while obviously not a high-octane thrill ride, looks fun.
i love the fact that coney island somehow survived its dark ages and is now seeing significant investment in its amusement parks once again. the US doesn't really have a whole lot in the way of urban amusement parks left. |
Plus it's already red and yellow for when they barf up their Nathan's.

It really has come a long way since Astroland closed. They've added a few more attractions every year, and people who haven't been there in years are always surprised at what they find. It's a genuinely fun place to visit, far from the years when people though of just crime. They've also been building a lot of housing on some of the empty lots, and that will continue. What will really turn the corner for CI though is when they start to build the indoor amusements. https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/n...?adppopup=true https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1312054926? https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1232207018? https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1312055032? https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1232209110? https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1311675407? https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1311675144? https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1311675206? https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1311674273? https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1311673901? https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1311674030? https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/n...?adppopup=true https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...-id1311672908? https://media.gettyimages.com/photos...08?s=2048x2048 Phoenix rising... https://www.instagram.com/p/CNrDxcDAxuB/ https://instagram.fhdy4-1.fna.fbcdn...._nc_sid=86f79a https://instagram.fhdy4-1.fna.fbcdn...._nc_sid=86f79a https://www.instagram.com/p/CNkEeeqrvXM/ https://scontent-prg1-1.cdninstagram..._nc_sid=86f79a |

The backdrop to a proposed casino on Coney Island is that development has been steadily taking place. 1515 Surf taking shape.

Really nice to see the Coney Island skyline start to fill in.
It's been a long time coming. Hopefully this is just the beginning. |
