Is Coney starting to remind you of Atlantic Yards?
Coney Rocks
This blog entry is here to remind us that the city is all too often ready to bend to the wishes of developers. The author seems to be someone who wants to suck up to the powerful, and doesn't care if Coney Island becomes a generic, indoor mall.
First they try to stop hotels through zoning. They lose. Then they try to stop hotels through a historic district designation. They lose again. Now they want to tell the developer how he should develop the buildings. LOL What's next?
Looks quite obvious that those dilipated buildings will be bulldozed and hotels will eventually happen in Coney.
Coney will go year round. Like it or not!
