The Guardian, a British newspaper, has an article on the planned redevelopment of Coney Island:

Coney Island may be something of a time capsule – as well as the perfect milieu for a Scooby Doo villain – but it holds its ground in terms of modern thrills – the Cyclone is as terrifying a white-knuckle ride as you’ll find anywhere, and well worth an hour’s ride on the F train from midtown Manhattan.

The summer season has a non-stop carnival atmosphere, with a fancy dress Mermaid Parade on 23 June and Nathan’s Famous hot dog-eating competition on 4 July. Aged eccentrics promenade the boardwalk next to Brooklyn homeboys, Williamsburg hipsters and young families. All human life is here, out for the day, an afternoon at the Aquarium or the Circus Sideshow, or at least a drink at the adjoining Freak
