It’ll Be Like Staying At A Toys “R” Us!

Now here’s an idea:

City Hall wants to kill a $1.5-billion plan to turn Coney Island into a fantasyland of hotels, amusements and rides — but down on the boardwalk, at least one ride operator is singing a different tune.

“Stranger things have happened than a hotel atrium built around a Ferris wheel,” said Dennis Vourderis, owner of Coney’s landmarked Wonder Wheel ride and operator of Deno’s Wonder Wheel Park, most of which was recently sold to embattled Coney developer Joe Sitt by Vourderis’ landlord Jack Ward.

Vourderis retains a 13-year lease to the boardwalk park, but he told The Brooklyn Paper that he would consider selling his lease for the chance to build a Wonder Wheel hotel.

“With creativity and a lot of money, it could be awesome,” he said.
