Atlantic Yards Opponents Bring Up the "Coney Island Arena Solution" Again

Gowanus Lounge

Coney Island Arena Site

Atlantic Yards opponents are again suggesting a "Coney Island arena solution" as an alternative to the huge Forest City Ratner project at Flatbush Avenue and Atlantic Avenue. In the latest salvo from Develop-Don't Destroy Brooklyn, Daniel Goldstein says, "Coney Island is a viable location for an arena in Brooklyn that requires a serious and hard look. It was built for crowds and can use the 'off season' shot in the arm that a professional basketball arena could bring."
