Coney Island is for Lovers!

ByLola

“Coney Island is not just a place,

it has a spirit that lives within

those who have been embraced by its love.”


Coney Island truly is for lovers! There is an intoxicating magic in the air that inspires great love! Scientists have studied this delightful phenomenon for centuries but no explanation can be found! Millions of lovers’ lives have been struck by Cupid’s gilttering arrow in Coney Island!  The Lola Star Souvenir Boutique on the Coney Island boardwalk asked her customers to share their Coney Island Love Stories! This is the magic they shared..

..

I feel truly honored that so many people shared such incredible Coney Island love stories with me for this project!

I was only able to include exerpts of the stories in the movie.  I highly recommend reading  the full stories that these lovers shared.
