Not as much as you think, but yeah there is room for residential development on Coney Island, just not on the oceanfront. One of the most expensive neighborhoods in Brooklyn is on one end,
and a gated enclave is on the other. But there should be beautiful ocean views from this development.

Anyway, welcome to de Blasio's New York, where there will be larger buildings in more places.

They've been talking about this particular development over at the Coney Island boards for a while...
