Abe Feinstein moved with his wife and children to Luna Park Houses in 1962 and lived there for 31 years. Working at a camera store, he could get discounts on film and processing, which enabled him to take as many photos as he wished. He had a habit of taking daily walks around Coney Island and snapping pictures. Empty lots were a favorite subject and he would track them as they changed with new construction. Abe has seen many changes in Coney Island and says he looks forward to the future development of the area.
