Coney Island Celebrates the Official Landmarking of its Famous Boardwalk
It was a great day for avid fans of the Coney Island Boardwalk.
On Thursday, August 9, elected officials and Coney fanatics gathered on the Boardwalk at West 12th Street to celebrate the official landmarking of the historic Riegelmann Boardwalk.
Although it was a formality, as the City Council had voted in July to make the popular Coney Island attraction a landmark, attendees were excited to celebrate the occasion.
