If you could add anything to the neighborhood, what would it be?

• Funding for resident-led, resident-service initiatives

• A traffic safety plan for residents

• Storm resilience

• No more development

• No Casino

• Bring a clothing retailer, chain pharmacy,  and a good supermarket inside of Coney Island --We want Trader Joes!

• Improve the water quality at Coney Island Creek park and add kayaking!

• 24 hour green market w/ food stalls with local restaurateurs (similar to the Dekalb Marketplace in downtown Brooklyn)

• An enforceable community agreement with Casino owners to improve our local schools, library, and YMCA.  

• Better care for the boardwalk. Needs fixing.

• Better traffic routes during rush hour and better flood prevention

• Create a community garden and/or recreational center out of the empty lot next to 3622 Mermaid Avenue, WFH career development workshops for residents to cut down on the need to commute into Manhattan (have more people both living and working in the area), invest in afterschool programs, affordable childcare, and third spaces for young people, CLEAN UP THE BEACH (especially near the amusement park), improve infrastructure on Neptune Avenue so it doesn’t flood every time it rains, to name a few. 

• More frequent transportation (express bus, local bus, subway). 

• More parking and a hotel

• Parking

• Safety

• wheelchair accessible playgrounds like the Magical Bridge Park, Fix the boardwalk, too many broken planks

• local gardens 

• A better Variety of Retail 

• A large arch shaped sign at Coney Island pier saying Welcome to Coney Island pier!!!!!!!!!!!!!

• A trade school of different trades 

• Fix Kaiser park, more year round benefits

• Get rid of rats

• Good leadership

• Grocery Stores, Gyms, Office Supplies, Healthy Restaurants

• Have more affordable housing. Gentrification is here.

• Healthier food options

• healthier food options ,cleaner streets and sidewalks

• More affordable housing, food markets, stores etc

• More food choices and better restaurants more gym activities more programs for children and adults maybe a water park more jobs in the area better pay 

• More police including for public housing 

• More programs for the kids & the community 

• More trash bins PLEASE! More police involvement. 

• Public Safety on Public Transport Trains and Buses in Coney Island

• Recreational places, like parks.

• Safety 

• We need more shopping  areas in the community. Indoor activities for families in the area especially during the winter time. More pre teen and teenage out reach programs teen night so kids can experience other thing outside the neighborhood  what about a shopping mall. Coney Island is the only place where your to leave the community to buy clothes shoes household etc

• Ferry service to other parts of New York City

• Casino or other year round big attractions 

• Many businesses are small businesses, but not sure residents can obtain employment through them.

• Larger businesses that can hire locals

• More bus routes though western Coney Island would improve environment.

• Massive fines for developers who let lots deteriorate. Use money to subsidize small operators, help them improve their businesses. 

• It's hard to say because I'm not a community member, but I would guess maybe more recreational activities for locals that aren't targeted for tourism?

• Much needed businesses like quality supermarket, bakery, fish market, restaurants etc

• Retail, community center, storm protection, environmental restoration, infrastructure repair, ban on high-rises,
