A seven-mile (11 km) stretch of sandy beach on the Atlantic Ocean at the southern end of Brooklyn, New York City, USA. From the early 19th century, it became a bathing spot for New York City's wealthy, and soon luxury hotels, casinos, entertainment halls, and ice cream parlors were built along the beach. From the 1880s, it became a major entertainment center for the general public, filled with roller coasters, merry-go-rounds, observation cars, and hot dog stands. It also has a 3.5-mile promenade and the New York Aquarium. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
