A larger photo.

Taken from inside the Q train, while it was moving,

on my way to Manhattan.

"Since it's debut on June 26, 1927, the Coney Island Cyclone has been a core fixture of the amusement district and is one of Luna Park in Coney Island's most cherished operating landmarks."

( From: lunaparknyc.com/rides/coney-island-cyclone)

(The Cyclone is both a NYC Landmark (1988) and listed in the National Register of Historic Places (1991).)

Where Cyclone is located is Surf Avenue and West 10th Street. This area also called Milton Berger Place.

If the photo is enlarged the green signs with the names (Surf Av over Milton Berger Place) would be noted.
