Brooklyn Back in the Day: Childs in Coney Island

May 22nd, 2008 · No Comments

We bring back our old Brooklyn Back in the Day series for this cool, cool photo of the Coney Island Boardwalk and Childs Restaurant a long time ago. The full size photo is worth looking at and it was uploaded to flickr by blackoutny. It’s especially fascinating to see some of the buildings that once stood on what is now vacant land. The photo was the work of Irving Underhill.
