Coney Island has a intoxicating scent all it’s own; grilled hot dogs, 40 kinds of suntan lotion, and a dash of ocean spray.
For the past few years I feared one of my favorite New York spots would be sanitized and plasticized into a standardized amusement park. Fortunately while there are new additions; dear Coney still looks quite like herself..

Thank you so much for this wonderful post. I would dearly love to visit Coney Island. I’ve seen it so often in films and read about it in books that I feel an affinity with it. It is definitely on my wish list!
