the the the 4 SATURDAY THE BROOKLYN TIMES MAY 29, 1915 CONEY ISLAND MUCH CHANGED Big Improvements Add to Parks. WILL BE GALA SEASON Thousands Find New Gayeties at Seaside. Coney Island, which has been brightest amusement centre in the country for many years, threw open its doors to the public to-day in 8 blaze of glory. It is not the Coney Island of yore, but a rehabilitated summer resort, that has more appealing amusements than ever before. It 13 bigger, brighter, cleaner, more prosperous than last year.

Dreamland Park, an unsightly spot since the great conflagration, which completely deone of biggest amusement enterprises on the island, has now been built up, and one would hardly remember that there once stood there this great park. Small side shows, from the "hit the nigger" to the "hot dog" stands now show brighter painted exteriors to the patrons.

Rain spoiled opening day a week ago, but the real opening to-day was the most auspicious that has ever been held. Thousands of Brooklynites and Manhattan residents began pouring into the Island the transit lines early, and before noon the streets were crowded with people taking in the new sights; business was booming and the old familiar cries of the bark-1 ers calling attention to their own particular shows or wares were heard. The most interest is being evinced the throngs in the new Seaside Park. This is an extension of the old park, from the municipal baths, down past the old Dreamland pier. The buildings which formerly stood on the Dreamland park site, have been completely razed and the city now has one long beach for the relief of the sweltering poor.

This is one of the biggest improvements that has been made in Coney Island's history and business men are looking forward to a great enhancement in property values, especially along the water front. The city paid $1,000,000 for this new plot of ground, which has extended the city more than half a mile. Another big improvement is now almost ready. It is in the transit facilities. With the opening of the Sea Beach and New Utrecht.

avenue routes to Coney Island, people will be able to travel there from Manhattan, in about half time they formerly, could, with far less inconvenience." A very efficient time table has been worked out by the B. R. T. to do away with the old crowded conditions in the trains to Coney Island. Luna Park is hardly recognizable to its old patrons.

It has been practically rebuilt All the old buildings have been fixed up, a great number of new attractions added and its outlook for the coming season is far brighter than ever before. Steeplechase Park has been greatly enlarged and improved. Its popular slides have all been repolished, its funny men and clowns are on the job and in fact everything in the place has been bettered. The intricate mazes have been made more difficult to pass through; the horseback stunts have been made more difficult and, best of all, many new innovations have been installed. The entrance, familiar to thousands by its big air figures, has been repainted, the moving paths, the electrical shocks, wielded by a man who knows how to get a laugh out of all, and the swirling winds set inside the entrance, will still- be: fintures.

Restaurant and theatre has been open in full blast for two weeks and reports from that popular place say that business has been beyond when it their is brightest considered hopes, especially that the whole section has had very bad weather. The old familiar vaudeville stars are being shown in the cool seaside theatre and it is expected that this place will have the biggest season in its Feltman's Gardens and Restaurants, history. long a landmark at the popular resort, is the same old familiar ground for those who wish to have a stamping quiet bite of good food, or to watch the passing throngs. The gardens at this place have been laid out by expert. landscape designers and all the details have been carried to a point of perfection.

All who have ever been there have been charmed with its quiet beauty and its contrast to some of the more garish places. With many new loop-the-loop, scenic railways, moving picture shows, freak shows. and all the other amusements that have drawn thousands to the Island every day in past summers, with the added transit facilities and the new seaside park, Coney Island is looking forward to 1915 as the most prosperous year of its existence. Optimism is the keynote of all the business men and from present indications and past experience of early season openings, they have good grounds for their optimism. They state, and this is A well-known fact, that real estate values have never been higher, rentals more liberal, or the general optimism more decidedly well based.

The officials of the Coney Island bank state that deposits have been very large from business men of the section this spring, in spite of the cry of times" heard throughout the rest of city. These men have their fingers on the pulse of Coney Island life and perhaps are the best future judges of the past, present and of the resort. They, too, are extremely optimistic. brings only the after. of trade the fret call that captures the procession custowers.

FELTMANS' READY BRIGHTON BEACH BUSINESS BOOM is the FOR BIG SEASON 1,300 Employees to Care for Summer Guests. DANCING IN New Shore Dinner Takes Place of Clambake. Great, imposing, and truly an American enterprise of the highest order, is the famous Feltman hostelry on Coney Island. This business, started in by Charles Feltman, with six employees, on the site of the present West End Depot, has grown to be the largest restaurant in the world. The success of this enterprise is due to a wellthought-out policy, a policy laid down by the founder of the institution, who knew the value of courtesy: the ne'cossity of satisfying the wants of his patrons in every particular, and the importance of their surroundings.

When in Feltmans', whether a guest! of the cafe, the dining gardens, the Deutscher garten, the wistaria pergola, the restaurant, the garden club, the banquet hall, the seaside garden or the shore dinner de luxe department, courtesy, satisfaction and refined and unique surroundings are evident. Its bigness and magnitude can only be learly brought out by figures, which, when considered for a moment, seem vardly credible. Yet, they are the ruth. An inspection of the different Tepartments only serves bring out more substantially their eracity. Thirteen hundred employees are on he payroll.

Approximately 150,000 square feet are occupied by the departments of Feltmans': 16,500 electric lights turn. the nights into days. At the frankfurter stand a good day will see no less than seven miles of them--sold to the public. Dur. ing an average season the carouselthe children's favorite corner--carries hundreds of thousands.

On one of last season's busy Sundays no less than 105,0000 persons patronized the mammoth establishment. In speaking of Feltmans' a French writer referred to the restaurant as a "veritable city within itself." 'The culinary department was most attractive to him. He liked the manner in which everything was kept, and spoke of it as being so "very clean." The kitchen and ice boxes are kept scrupulously clean. Feltmans' make their own ice, generate their electricity, wash and iron their linen, and grow their vegetables and raise their try on their own farms, It is practically independent of everything outside of it. If it were put In a virgin forest, miles away from the' multitudes, a beaten path would be worn to its doors for no other reason than that things are done a little differently than in any other place of its kind.

Entertainment was never lacking at Feltmans', This year it will be even better than heretofore. The Seventyfirst Regiment Band has been and orchestras for the Seaside Garden, Wisteria Pergola and i Deutscher Garten, have been procure. Singers, a caricature artists. dancers and a refined cabaret afford an unusual afternoon or evening of enjoyment. The new Shore Dinner De Luxe, will be one of the striking and lightful features of the establishment.

It takes the place of the clambake, and will be served on the balcony within hearing of the alluring song of Father Neptune's waves washing the Atlantic shores. The new banquet. department, recently completed, has tables for the seating of 1,200 persons. Its location and soft color scheme are ideal its purpose. It is in the heart of the hostelry, which will Insure prompt service.

Dancing, one of the first amusements of Feltmans' in olden days, comes back this year. The Wisteria Pergola, at the end of the Deutscher Garten, has been air. completed. It is tecture practically is of open Colonial style, with in the Its archilarge pergolas on either side. In the centre is a spacious floor.

This, no doubt, will be one of the most popu-4 lar departments. The orchestra of the Wisteria Pergola is one of the best in the city. The brains- -the men who created and have made Feltmans' famous the world over- are Charles and Alfred Feltman. They started with their father when in their teens. He mould- SEES BIG SEASON Best Near-City Resort, Is Managers' Slogan.

Brighton Beach is fast opening for the coming season and again becoming the point of attraction as a place of amusement and seaside resort. The hotels, of which the Shelburne and the Brighton Beach Hotel are being elaborately redecorated to cater successfully to the wealthy patronage which throngs the resort throughout the summer months. The ball room of the Shelburne has been enlarged, remodeled and ted in shades of lavender, making it the most elaborate in Brooklyn and the' popular place for summer dances and dinners of exclusive clubs and organizations. The ocean breezes the hearings, condemning and appraising land for the building of same. This to take care of all the drainage water from Coney Island, Gravesend, Sheepshead Bay and the surrounding section.

It was supposed this ditch in reality be a ship canal, but present plans do not call for anylike a canal, enabling boats to LUNA PARK, SHOWING THE CENTRAL TOWER AND CHUTE-THE-CHUTES. AT SHEEPSHEAD 1915 Will Bring Best Season Since Racing Stopped, BUILDING OPERATIONS Summer Resort Takes on New Lease of Life. Sheepshead Bay, always conspicuous for its activity, beauty and wonderful natural facilities, and noted as a high class summer resort and residential section, has taken a new lease of life this spring and is undergoing the most remarkable boom of its history. Business men declare that the influx of people, the new building opera' tions, and the general interest that has been aroused in the section has been remarkable, and that the longdeferred ambitions of the residents and conscientious civic-workers are, now being realized. This forward movement has been the greatly helped by the activity of Board of Trade and of the new motor race track, which will bring within the bounds of Sheepshead Bay, thousands of people annually, which will be the means of introducing this community to many who have, perhaps, never visited before.

There is: little doubt but that the new enterprise will be followed by many others and1 that the section will soon vie with Brighton Beach. The fight of the Board of Trade for recognition of the section's natural resources, such as boating, swimming and fishing, and the "boost Sheepshead Bay" campaign carried on has had many gratifying results. The fight for more direct transit is practically won. The voice of protest was heard by some of the shrewdest real estate operators in this borough when opportunity came they purchased extensive land in that section. Small builders followed their and homes have sprung up like mushrooms all over the waterfront.

Little need be said about the industries carried on there, for they can speak for themselves. Sheepshead has no rival around the Greater City in the number of fishing. excursions that go out from its docks. Its restaurants and other business are well founded business institutions and the home sections are fast becoming very exclusive. Development of Waterfront.

Possibly the greatest development in the section in a business sense lies along the waterfront. The 150-foot steam yacht has come to take the place of the rowboat; probably twenty-five of these leaving port every day with from fifty to 200 per-, sons on board, bound for the fishing banks. This has become one of the leading revenues of the residents and business men of the Bay, and though a great many of people would prefer having the waterfront a wide promenade, similar to Manhattan Beach, the amount of money of invested and the wonderful growth this new line of business, and the thousands of people it draws to the section, behooves the business men to assist this industry as much as possible. The rental of water frontage at Sheepshead a few years ago could be had for the asking, whereas enormous rentals are charged and gladly paid. In fact most every available space is now used for the docking of some large steam yacht, and it is confidently predicted the waterfront of this section will surpass both Bergen Beach and Canarsie combined.

The bay is one of the safest harbors in the greater city. There is no fear of sand bars or having to go out or leave at certain times owing to the tide, for 8 deep six-foot channel was dredged two years ago ythe U. S. Government, and an appropriation is now held by the Harbor and Rivers Committee to keep this channel open. This was formerly a matter of local assessment on the fishing Interests, some $3,000 having to be spent every second year to keep the channel open.

Trough the efforts of the Board of Trade, the War Department dredged it its supervision. To this improvement and this body of water is now under may be credited the transformation from the pleasure craft to the steam and gasoline steamers coming and leaving the bay. Docking Facilities. The dockage on the Manhattan Beach side now belonging to the city, is becoming A favorite spot for the mooring of these large steam yachts, though preference is always given to the bay side. Along Emmons avenue, where formerly stood old hotels, new and modern buildings have taken their place.

The old Gilbert cottage has been turned into the home of the Tamaqua Boat Club, with its floats and long piers running well into the bay. This has wonderfully improved this section. Progress Made. The wonderful strides made by the ferries that run out of Sheepshead Bay to the Rockaways, has helped to populate the bay section. It is stated that some 500,000 persons use the boats of the Sheepshead Bay Ferry Company each year during the season.

Twelve boats now run on a ten-minute head-1 way to Reed's Point. Like the fishing industry, the ferries have been a revenue producer for the business men. Possibly the greatest improvement that will come in time, is the building of the Ship Canal. This was laid out 88 8 ship canal, and A merry fight is expected from the people of this section regarding the proposed drainage ditch A con mission is now holding SPORT EVENTS AT SHEEPSHEAD All Branches of Game to Be Decided. AUTO RACES A FEATURE of Ninety Miles an Hour on Curves.

Sheepshead Bay as a sport centre will be without equal with the completion of the Motordrome. It is already famous as 8. fishing station, and the home of several boat clubs, and is also rapidly becoming one of the leading places of lighter amusement. Just what the Motordrome means to the erty sport-loving owners is public not as yet to fully prop- realand the ized. It means the staging of many of the championships now staged elsewhere because of more adequate means, and the coming of persons from various parts of the country and even from Europe to witness these titular and International contests.

The automobile course undoubtedly will be the main feature of the Motordrome. The track, which will meanure two miles in circumference and seventy wide, will be the finest in the world. The auto classics now staged in Western cities will be brought East. A speed of ninety miles an hour or more will be able to be attained on the curves In 88 much safety as on the straightaway. Aside from the auto races, there will be aviation meets, lawn tennis, football, athletics of every description, polo, and possibly golf.

In every instance championships will be bid for. The rebuilding of the track will take some time and it is doubtful whether other than the race course will be completed this year. will be another feature of the Motordrome. It is the intention of erecting a stadium which will seat about persons, the largest ever attempted. The main entrance to this will be at Neck road and Ocean avenue, instead of in the centre as heretofore.

Outside of the big enclosure is the Velodrome, which is scheduled for opening to-night. This is another big boost in sports. Cycling has become quite a craze with the fans and at the Velodrome many of the champions will be seen, Bicycle, motorcycle and motor-paced races will be staged. The place is not as large as the Brighton Beach one, but it affords fans a better opportunity to see the contestants at closer range. Fishing has become an industry at the Bay.

Thousands of persons leave there weekly for the fishing grounds, bringing in some of the best catches in the East. There are any number of stations and a boat may be had at almost any time.

SURROGATE'S NOTICES. CHUTE-THE-CHUTES. go through from Gravesend Bay to Sheepshead Bay. The present plans call for a drainage ditch 200 feet wide and about 6 feet deep, with a viaduct or pipe to be built under each crossing of the railroad. The bayite argues that the waters of the bay will be so contaminated that it would ruin the entire water front of the bay; whereas, on the other hand, if a canal was built, the flow would carry the waste out into the ocean, and the real value of the adjoining land would be wonderfully enriched.

Protest Against Ditch. According to those who profess to know the city. is not allowed by its charter to dig a ditch wider than 2001 fect and 6 feet deep, but that it would gladly enter into an agreement with both the State and the Federal Goyernment to have constructed a real ship canal, 600 feet wide and 20 feet deep.

How a section of Brooklyn can change its geographical lines, due to public improvements, and the different views taken by the "boosters of a section," is exemplified in the case of Sheepshead Bay. This time last year the people, through the Board of Trade, advocated the extension of the Sea Gate line from Sea Gate to Bragg street and Emmons avenue, and up to Nostrand avenue and Avenue U. Recent developments have changed all this plan however, in this respect, that the people want the railroad, but they do not want the Sea Gate line to go any further than where they do at' present; that is, to stop at Emmons and Ocean avenues.

They do want the Nostrand avenue line to come down A Avenue to Bragg street, to Emmons avenue, and there meet the Sea Gate line. They argue, why have a line that will bring people away from the centre of the town to a remote place? Why not have the line that brings the people from the city to the centre the town, as would the Nostrand avenue line. It is found that the Ocean avenue line cannot take care of the people now coming to the bay, especially in the summer season. They also arguo the extension of the Nostrand avenue line would pass through sections developed, and would greatly help develop land worth millions of dollars, that would otherwise be improved only by a railroad. Last year the people were all in favor of the extension of Manhattan Beach from its present bulkhead to Point Breeze land that would be reclairned by the Manhattan Beach people.

This year they 'are' absolutely against this extension, for the good reason that the race track has been sold and with 18 all the land lying outside of the tracie and also the water front along Garritson's Creek. This company, known as the Sheepshead Bay Speedway, hag planned to make a beautiful beach out of Plumb Beach, in some parts making the low lands in the back, similar to a venetian city, with waterways in and around all the lots, as a part of Sheepshead Bay. The property owners as well as all the boatmen are strongly against this extension, having appeared 'before the War Department Harbor Line Board and protested against it. The matter is still held in abeyance, with the prospects of it being revoked. as Seoretary of War has already done on 8 previous occasion.

The building of the Motordrome at Ocean and Jerome avenues, is expected to be a great success. Hundreds of tickets have been sold in the Bay section. The members of the Board of Trade are among the invited guests of John Chapan, the manager. Property in and around the Velodrome has increased over two hundred per that is in the Jerome section, this being the main artery, to reach this and the Sbeepshead Speedway on the opposite a side of Ocean avenue. The recent dinner given to the builders and promoters of the Speedway, the company who purchased the Coney Island race track, was without doubt the banner social event in the Bay's history, the members of the Board of Trade feeling that every one should support this big enterprise which will eventually will bring millions of dollars into the section.

Never in the Bay's history has property made such bounds as it has in the past few weeks, all due to the many new ventures that are taking place. There is hardly one vacant house in the Bay, whereas last year at this time there were at least a hundred The prices are coming back to the good old days of racing, when rooms and houses were at a premium. It la stated by one real estate man that real estate has increased over thirty per cent. in the past three weeks and not only in one place, but all over the section. A great future is in store for the man who will build houses that Cal be sold or rented at a reasonable figure.

The Evans cabaret, with its fifteen dancing girls, makes time fly in the dining room the management will continue to devote its entire time to the welfare and enjoyment of its guests.

The Brighton Beach Hotel, with its beautiful lawns facing the ocean, will, as of old, cater to its select retinue of guests who enjoy the excellent band concerts, with the ocean right under their windows. The amusement booths, roller coasters and shooting galleries are preparing for a gala season and already the men with the megaphones are beginning to shout their wares. The bath houses are in good condition. The usual care will be used in patroling the surf for bathers who disobey the warnings and life guards. The New Brighton Theatre is being carefully booked by experts in an endeavor to outdo the big-time bills which have been presented there in the past.

Brighton Beach with its excellent rallroad and auto facilities is becoming one of the most fashionable the-city summering places and the managers of the numerous pleasure resorts are saving neither time nor money to make the coming season the best.
