Coney Island-Now and Then Update

2/29/2016

A few months ago I posted a 'Now and Then' for the former Coney Island. I mentioned that the building that housed Coney Island was once the Downtowner Motor Inn but could not find any images of the motel except for the postcard below. Today I was looking at some pictures and noticed that behind the Morris Plan Company building was the Downtowner sign! Unfortunately, both the Morris Plan Company building and the Downtowner Motor Inn have been demolished and are parking lots. The Guaranty Abstract building next to Morris Plan is still standing, although it has gone through some cosmetic changes.

It is really nice to see people who are still trying to raise the bar. It is not okay that we remain the same. I think that there are people who need to follow your lead. If we all work and get better as a whole, then we are all going to experience change soon. We need to go and just work on raising the bars that we need to deliver. I want this to be a normative thing in our society.
