A boutique hotel and spa is coming to the former Shore Theater building in Coney Island
New plans for the long-vacant Shore Theater building on the corner of Surf and Stillwell avenues in Coney Island do not include a theater.
Some people are disappointed with this, but on the whole, neighborhood advocates are happy that something is finally being done with the deteriorating structure.
Plans filed by Pye Properties, which purchased the building for $14 million in 2016, show a 50-room boutique hotel, a ground-floor spa, rooftop restaurant and ground-floor cafe, according to Brooklyn Daily. The renovation is estimated to cost $60 million and is expected to be ready by 2021.
