Coney Island

The Cyclone and New Friends.

Sadly the attractions of Coney Island will soon be gone. They are tearing it down to build condos, or a new amusement park . . . no one truly knows. It's a sad thing, because everyone (and by everyone I mean people in the western world) knows about the Coney Island amusement park, its a little old and rickety place of dreams. We hear about it in movies and conversation. We take it to a place in our minds that doesn't truly exist but to us its real. As a Canadian, I always thought of it as this magical place. A place I could never touch. I am sad that this almost historical place is shutting down. This is the last summer to dream of it being alive after a winters sleep. Instead I am going to bring it home to you in photographs and we'll have its majestic feel forever in pictures.
