Image courtesy of Robert Stolarik for The New York Times Last Friday's New York Times had an article on the wreckage of the yellow 'Quester I' submarine in Coney Island Creek. The Quester I was a treasure-hunting submarine built by a Brooklyn dock worker in the late 1960s, which unfortunately never made it out of Coney Island Creek.
The Times article is a nice slice of Coney Island story, and like so many Coney Island articles, relies on Charles Denson's expertise. For a fuller history of the history of the Quester I submarine, however, it's better to check out the account on Forgotten New York.
