An open invitation from Paul’s Daughter:
Please come to our party at Paul’s Daughter (Coney Island Boardwalk at W. 10 St.) this Saturday November 13th at 12:30 pm. It’s on the house!
Why is this important? Read SAVING PAUL’S DAUGHTER of Coney Island. I’m trying to arrange my flight to go. NY/Brooklyn bloggers, I hope to meet you there!
And while you’re at it, here are some news stories about the iconic Paul’s Daughter, and also how NY Mayor Bloomberg/Central Amusement International/Zamperla USA are killing historic Coney Island:
Also, TWEET/PHONE YOUR DISGUST about the eviction and non-support of boardwalk businesses:
-
@sethpinsky (President, New York City Economic Development Corporation)
-
Call 311 and leave a comment for the Mayor. Phone 212-NEW-YORK outside NYC.
-
Call Zamperla USA at 1-973-334-8133
-
Email zamperla@zamperlausa.com
If you’ve never been to Coney Island, this weekend may be your last chance to see it the way it has been for decades! If you’re in NYC, please come out and show your support!

Thank you all for your comments! So wish I could be there too, but I don’t think I can arrange the flights on such short notice. I appreciate you being with us all in spirit, however!

I wish I could take a trip to NYC this weekend!
I really hope they are able to save Paul’s Daughter. I mentioned this in your other post, but have they looked into getting landmark status for the restaurant?

Hey doll, I’m sure they’re looking at all their options. Six vendors have already banded together for a class-action suit, though I don’t know if they really have legal cause to sue. I will keep you all updated about any news.
Thanks!

Hi sweetie…I actually will NOT be there…can’t get flights arranged. You have fun with your BF and if you have nothing else to do, go by anyway…I’m sure the atmosphere will be fun, even if bittersweet. Thanks for thinking of me/my family!
