  • THE CYCLONE, 834 Surf Avenue at West 10Th Street, Brooklyn
    Landmarks Preservation Commission July 12, 1988; Designation List 206 LP-1636 THE CYCLONE, 834 Surf Avenue at West 10th Street, Brooklyn. Built 1927. Inventor Harry c. Baker. Engineer Vernon Keenan. Landmark Site: Borough of Brooklyn Tax Map Block 8697, Lot 4 in part consisting of the land on which the described improvement is situated. On September 15, 1987, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the cyclone and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 12). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Six witnesses spoke in favor of designation, including the ride's owner, whose support was given dependant upon his ability to perform routine repair and maintenance. One witness spoke in opposition to designation. The Commission has received many letters in favor of designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS Summary Descended from the ice slides enjoyed in eighteenth-century Russia, through the many changes incorporated by French and American inventors, the Cyclone has been one of our country's premier roller coasters since its construction in 1927. Designed by engineer Vernon Keenan and built by noted amusement ride inventor Harry C. Baker for Jack and Irving Rosenthal, the Cyclone belongs to an increasingly rare group of wood-track coasters; modern building codes make it irreplaceable. The design of its twister-type circuit and the enormous weight of the cars allow the trains to travel on their own momentum after being carried up to the first plunge by mechanical means. Now part of Astroland amusement park, the Cyclone is not only a well­ recognized feature of Coney Island, where the first "modern" coaster was built in 1884, but, sadly, is the only roller coaster still operating there.

  • Coney Island Comprehensive Rezoning Plan - Approved! Overview
    Projects & Proposals > Brooklyn > Coney Island Coney Island Comprehensive Rezoning Plan - Approved! Overview From its famed boardwalk, to the iconic Wonder Wheel, Cyclone, and Parachute Jump, to the once bustling midways along Surf Avenue and the Bowery, Coney Island’s legendary status as the world’s greatest urban amusement park lives in all of our memories. But over the years, this once vibrant area has shrunk and deteriorated, and is limited today to one block of seasonal amusements and a few remaining active frontages along Surf Avenue. The Department of City Planning, in partnership with the New York City Economic Development Corporation (EDC), the Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) and the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), has developed a comprehensive plan that will establish a framework for the revitalization of the Coney Island amusement area and the surrounding blocks. The plan builds upon the few remaining amusements to create a 27-acre amusement and entertainment district that will reestablish Coney Island as a year-round, open and accessible amusement destination. Outside of the amusement area, the plan provides new housing opportunities, including affordable housing, and neighborhood services. The plan covers 19 blocks bounded by the New York Aquarium to the east, West 24th View the presentation Street to the west, Mermaid Avenue to the north and the Riegelmann Boardwalk to the south. The plan seeks to: Facilitate the development of a vibrant year round, 27-acre urban amusement and entertainment district by catalyzing a variety of new indoor and outdoor amusement, entertainment, and complimentary uses, and laying the groundwork for the development of a 12-acre urban amusement park preserving and expanding amusement uses in their historic boardwalk location in perpetuity; Rezoning Area Boundary View a larger image.

    Coney Island - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 8/3/11 11:29 AM Coney Island Coordinates: 40.574416°N 73.978575°W From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Coney Island is a peninsula and beach on the Atlantic Ocean in southern Brooklyn, New York, United States. The site was formerly an island, but became partially connected to the mainland by landfill. Coney Island is possibly best known as the site of amusement parks and a major resort that reached their peak during the first half of the 20th century. It declined in popularity after World War II and endured years of neglect. In recent years, the area has seen the Coney Island peninsula from the air opening of MCU Park and has become home to the minor league baseball team the Brooklyn Cyclones. The neighborhood of the same name is a community of 60,000 people in the western part of the peninsula, with Sea Gate to its west, Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach to its east, and Gravesend to the north.

  • And IMAGINE! by Raúl Colón
    A Curriculum Guide to DRAW! and IMAGINE! By Raúl Colón BACKGROUND/SUMMARY Draw! and Imagine!, two wordless picture books by Raúl Colón, invite readers of all ages to explore the power of art and imagination. In these two books, we see the joyous effects of art on the life of a young boy. Readers take an active part in bringing each story to life by combining the visual storytelling techniques and clues provided by the artist with their own words. In Draw! we see a young boy, sick in bed, entertaining himself by reading a book about Africa. We first see him referring back to the book while drawing animals. He then begins to imagine himself in Africa, and as his imagination takes over, he encounters and draws a series of animals. He even shares his drawings with some of them. Ultimately, the boy bids farewell to the elephant that first welcomed him and returns to the reality of his room. A final page-turn shows the boy back at school, sharing his artwork with his classmates. Imagine! tells the story of a young boy who rides his skateboard on a trip across the Brooklyn Bridge to visit the Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan. As he looks at famous pictures—The Sleeping Gypsy by Henri Rousseau, Three Musicians by Pablo Picasso, and Icarus by Henri Matisse—the characters leap off their canvases and then join the boy on a joyous romp around New York. They take a train to Coney Island and ride the Cyclone (a famous wooden roller coaster), visit the Statue of Liberty, eat hot dogs, and enjoy singing while sitting on the lawn in Central Park.
