I took a trip out to Coney Island on one of these recent summer-like afternoons. I'm pleased to report that it's not as devastated as expected. From a distance it still looks like the Coney Island I've grown to love, and up close it's as kitschy and colorful as always. Though I'm not certain how long this will hold true; read more about the development plan here. Oh, and contrary to rumors, Siren Music Festival will continue on the island this summer!
