That's great. It still has "the feel" of The Warriors movie.

Looks like it was "preserved" for the past 25 years since the making of "The Warriors."

It is still open. I think it is only open in the spring and summer though. Alot of the old rides that you might have seen in the movies are closed down due to malfunctions. I know that the Wonder Wheel and the Cyclone are still there.

It's not really a popular place like it used to be. Too many of the rides were breaking down and alot of people were getting injured or killed on them. Plus the area isn't that great either. Us New Yorker usually will go to Six Flags in New Jersey or to Rye Playland in Rye, NY.

I'm not sure if it was ever upper class. I know that it was alot more popular back in the day though.

Coney Island doesn't look like it changed much since 1979.

I was at Coney this weekend to take some pictures and the only props that I saw there is the Rockstar ad.
