The rally marking the last chance to save Coney Island took place on the steps of
Brooklyn's Borough Hall today. Participants called on Mayor Bloomberg and the
New York City Council to rethink the rezoning plans for the amusement district
in Coney Island. Under the proposed plan, high-rise hotels will built on the south
(sea) side of Surf Avenue, throwing what's left of the amusement area and part
of the boardwalk into shadow.
For an outline of the plans, watch the Mayor of Coney Island, Dick Zigun, below.

On a stroll around Coney Island Creek on Thursday, this little guy fluttered into
a nearby tree to see what we were up to. He reminded me of a Welsh rock band
I was briefly into as a kid.

On Monday we visited the "grand opening" of the Festival by the Sea, billed as a "uniquely entertaining and amusing marketplace in Coney Island." Goodbye, rides and go-kart track and batting cages! Hello, mobile phones and laminated photocopies! Elegant grace note: the bin liners flapping from the roof skeleton. Imagine an undersubscribed car-boot sale held on the surface of the moon. Viva Coney!
