About this map

Astroland and the Steeplechase Pier anchor the southern coastline of Brooklyn on this map, documenting the iconic waterfront of Coney Island before significant redevelopment began to alter the amusement district's traditional footprint. The survey captures the dense urban grid extending through Bensonhurst, Gravesend, and Sheepshead Bay, contrasted by the specialized aeronautical and maritime infrastructure at Floyd Bennett Field and the Brooklyn Coast Guard Air Station further east.

Along the southern edge, the map traces the shoreline of Rockaway Inlet and the residential developments of Breezy Point and Roxbury on the peninsula. The inclusion of several postal facilities, such as the Homecrest Station Brooklyn Post Office, and major transit hubs like the Coney Island Terminal New York City Transit System, provides a detailed record of the municipal services and transportation networks supporting these coastal neighborhoods.
