The Coney Island USA Freak Bar and Gift Shop
Coming soon to an amusement area near you!


Architectural Design by Philip Tusa, rendering by William Ranwell and Fred Kahl

* It's a shining beacon on West 12th Street and Surf Avenue!
* It's the first step towards the new, year-round Coney Island!
* It's the new and improved Freak Bar and Coney Island USA Gift Shop!

Don't look now, but it won't be long before you can listen to music on our vintage jukebox and quaff Coney Island Lager on tap - in the space formerly occupied by the US Army! You'll browse through the new and improved gift shop in the former Dreamland Artists Club! And do it Wednesday through Sunday all year round!

Lovingly designed by Architect Philip Tusa, our expansion onto Surf Ave will be sure to please and amaze. This May, all the fun begins as we usher in the New Coney Island! Join us!

CONEY ISLAND MUSEUM
The Museum will be closed from May 5-24 for renovation. Sorry for the inconvenience.

steeplechase Man
Since 1980, Coney Island USA has told the story of why Coney Island is important enough to one day retake its place at the cultural center of New York. The Coney Island Museum is at the heart of that mission. Its the only public repository documenting the history and culture of this important neighborhood. We fight to keep the history of this critical piece of American popular culture from being lost to the inevitable changes facing Coney Island today.

Come join us on weekends, year-round. Admission is $.99 cheap!
