Today we celebrate a key milestone in the ongoing development of Coney Island’s beloved Amphitheater. The City Council has approved a special permit for the Seaside Park and Community Arts Center under the City’s Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP), ensuring that the Amphitheater and historic Child’s Building continue to serve as vibrant entertainment, event and gathering spaces anchoring the western part of the Coney Island Boardwalk.

NYCEDC also has an open RFP for the repositioning, operation, and maintenance of both the Childs Building and the Coney Island Amphitheater. Selected operators will optimize the site's full potential. All responses to the RFP are due no later than March 31, 2026. https://edc.nyc/operators-coney-island-amphitheater-and-childs-building-rfp

Today’s vote comes as NYCEDC is bringing high quality housing and infrastructure improvements to Coney Island, including mixed-income housing and historic renovations to the Coney Island Boardwalk and Abe Stark Center.
