The real place
Coney Island has been New York's seaside playground since the late 19th century. Deno's Wonder Wheel has turned since 1920, the wooden Cyclone roller coaster opened in 1927, and the red Parachute Jump tower, built for the 1939 World's Fair, has stood by the boardwalk since 1941.
Visiting
Take the subway to Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue, the end of the D, F, N and Q lines. The rides run from spring to autumn, and a hot dog at the original Nathan's Famous on Surf Avenue is part of the trip.
