To give us an emotional feel of the latest redevelopment plan by the city to rezone Coney Island and diminishing the amusement core to a mere nine acres, Dick Zigun sort of proposed Coney fans to work on their own rendering for the purpose. This one above created by Coney Island USA poster Elephant Man does a very good job of that. Other posters, like Swithback's (unofficial rendering of CIDC's plan, below) and egulvision (following), have done their own renditions of the horror Coney Island would look like in resembling every-where-else America.
