There's a new "Gold Rush mentality" hitting Coney Island right now, according to the director of the Coney Island History Project?but this gold rush consists of, er, chain retailers and restaurants. Johnny Rockets and Red Mango are coming in 2014, and there's a Nets Shop by Adidas selling Brooklyn Net bikinis. Then there's the Applebee's with a 20-foot fish tank that will house stingrays, leopard sharks, and other delightful sea creatures. Coney 2.0? [NYDN; previously]
