“GHOST TOWN”, 2008 (10 Videos, 29:42')

Steven Day and David Pushkin began shooting this project upon the announcement that Astroland Amusement Park at Coney Island would be sold and demolished as part of urban renewal.
Ghost Town presents an inside view of the park, the rides, and people that flock to Coney Island every summer. It’s a very real environment that represents more than leisurely escape.
