Boardwalk makeover approved

NY Daily News -

The city got the nod Monday for its controversial plan to give the Coney Island Boardwalk a concrete and fake wood makeover.

The Design Commission voted to approve rebuilding the chunk of the Boardwalk from Brighton 15th St. to Coney Island Ave. with a strip of concrete down the middle and plastic lumber on either side.

The $7.4 million project could be used as a model for eventually rebuilding the rest of the iconic 42-block stretch, except for a small area in the Coney Island amusement district.
