Coney Island, RIP
September 7, 2008
Although I've lived in New York off and on for something like seven years now, somehow I had never made it out to Coney Island before. So when I learned that Astroland was closing for good today - soon to be followed by most of the old boardwalk vendors - I realized this was my last chance to trek out and take a last look around before the inevitable Disneyfication gets underway.
