Yesterday, the Coney Island Mermaids and friends made the journey to lower Manhattan to see City Planning Commission Chair Amanda Burden at the Department of City Planning. Angie Pontani (Miss Cyclone), the Coney Island Mermaids, Musician Amos Wengler, and Rapid T. Rabbit arrived to deliver hundreds of signed postcards pleading with the city to reconsider the shrinking of Coney Island's historic amusement district. The City Planning Commission votes tomorrow on the redevelopment plan.
