will fork over $600,000 annually
through 2025 to fund
the seaside sounds, according
to economic-agency
reps, who said local Councilman
Mark Treyger (DConey
Island) and Borough
President Adams helped to
broker the deal.
The builder is no
stranger to the neighborhood,
where it is in the
midst of erecting a ninestory,
135-unit residential
development next to
MCU Park, at Surf Avenue
and W. 21st Street,
which will include belowmarket
rate apartments
for the formerly homeless,
domestic-violence victims,
and recovering addicts,
as well as an on-site
social-services staff.
Offi cials have yet to determine
the number of concerts
for this summer, but
iStar’s cash will likely fund
four or fi ve free shows each
year based on previous
years’ expenses, according
to a rep from the agency.
Past performers at the
concert series — which
dates back to 1978 , and
moved to the amphitheater
when it opened in 2016
— include the late Queen
of Soul, Aretha Franklin ,
Bedford-Stuyvesant native
Big Daddy Kane , and
Puerto Rican salsa singer
Tito Rojas.
News of the shows’ future
funding comes after
some tenuous years for
the concerts, which offi -
cials cancelled in 2014 , and
struggled to fi nd cash for
ever since, according to the
economic agency, which
noted that Treyger and Adams
secured hundreds of
thousands of dollars from
the city’s discretionary
funding to keep the events
up and running until iStar
bigwigs stepped in.
The concerts are one
of the community’s “most
beloved and popular traditions,”
according to Treyger,
who cheered the private
company for footing
their bill after he worked
to keep the shows alive
for years.
“I am already looking
forward to this summer’s
shows, and am thrilled
knowing our community
will be able to enjoy them
for years to come,” he said.
And Adams agreed,
adding that this year’s and
future performances will
continue to make the People’s
Playground a summer
destination for locals and
tourists alike.
“This is a big win for
everyone invested in the
future of America’s Playground,”
the beep said.

It’s music to their ears!
Coney Island will host
free summer concerts for
the next six years, after a
real-estate-investment fi rm
handed over three-and-ahalf
million dollars to keep
the tunes coming, leaders
of the city’s Economic
Development Corporation
announced on Thursday.
The seasonal shows at
the Ford Amphitheater and
the nearby Seaside Park,
both on the Riegelmann
Boardwalk between W. 21st
and W. 23rd streets, drew
some of the biggest stars in
music in years past, according
to the founder of Coney
Island USA, who cheered
the news of more forthcoming
free entertainment.
“Coney Island not only
rocks a gorgeous facility,
we give famous acts away
for free!” said Dick Zigun,
who is also the neighborhood’s
self-declared,
unoffi cial mayor .
Developer iStar —

city to build the amphitheater,
and to restore

It was basically used
by the city to shut down
dance clubs,” he said. “Now
that those laws are gone,
we’re back!”
