“Paradise at the End of a Subway Ride”. Meet the turn of the century entrepreneurs whose imaginations knew no limits. Race tracks to carousels; mermaids to freak shows; hot dog eaters to fire eaters. From the roar of roller coasters to roar of lions to the roar of devastating fires. Ragtime Coney Island was a thrilling working class summer destination for over a million people a day. That Coney Island is gone, but the smell of the sea air remains, as do the exuberant stories of beauty, innovation and FUN! (an escorted walk to Brighton Beach – and great Russian and Tajik food – available if desired. Additional mile, included in 2.5 hours.)
