Stillwell Ave, Gravesend

Most people still use Stillwell to get to Coney Island, and that's just fine. Though the park hardly retains the spark of its glory years, but it's still great for a day of kitschy fun that's a throwback to times long past. Get a hot dog, take a ride on the roller coaster, and pray that the always promised 'revitalization efforts' actually come through in the next century.

Stillwell Avenue is a main route in Brooklyn. It continues from Surf Avenue intersecting at Neptune Avenue. The street also seemed to be a busy one as they are many office buildings and cars that can be seen parked out there. The sky was cloudy and looked as if it would rain any moment. But somehow we got through this thoroughfare without any problem. There is something called the ‘Sunrise auto group’, a store dealing with automobiles and spares. Our cab driver halted there to purchase some spares. I still feel Coney Island was the best that I visited. I enjoyed the mermaid parade that they had. Traveling is no big issue. You can choose from options like, bus, subway or a cab. If shopping is the only thing for being over here then Coney Island needs to be your main junction. You will find lots of clothing and accessories here. I bought for myself a custom designed T- shirt and souvenirs for my friends. The roller coaster was huge and spectacular. I really wished to go but avoided as it all looked fun from far but too scary when the ride begins.
