Neptune/Sixth retail center opens for business in Coney Island
A new commercial building recently opened in Coney Island with a ribbon cutting ceremony and a bold prediction by the developer that the building will become an important hub for the community.
The May 23 ceremony marked the grand opening of 626 Sheepshead Bay Road, a seven-story building that is part of Neptune/Sixth, a giant complex that will contain a combination of commercial entities, public spaces and residential housing.
“We wanted 626 Sheepshead Bay Road to be a catalyst for the neighborhood,” said Jacob Cohen, executive vice president of development at Cammeby’s, the real estate company behind the project.
