The year is shaping up to be another crazy one for Coney Island, and tomorrow the Municipal Art Society will release even more re-imagined renderings of the area (you may recall the, um, interesting ones from November). Now they promise 300+ public ideas, and steps to revitalize the area. The MAS "will present the results of its ImagineConey project at a public meeting. The presentation will include highlights of the 300 concepts generated by the public, as well as specific recommendations from charette participants." If you want to be a part of the future of Coney, or just want to look at the crazy and colorful pictures, head to the Our Lady of Solace Church on Mermaid Avenue tomorrow. More details here, but check out Curbed for a look at some of the weird visions before you commit!
