Victor, 64 years old, grew up in Canarsie, Brooklyn and came to Coney Island often as an escape because his parents didn't drive. Once a year, however, his entire family would come for a vacation day from eight in the morning until closing time. He moved away from New York in 1963 and is pleasantly surprised about how Coney Island has been cleaned up since then.
