The Coney Island Experience Museum
LEDO was retained by Tower Entertainment Inc. of New York to complete
a Site and Feasibility Validation Study of their preliminary business
plan for a proposed Coney Island Experience Museum, to be located
in Manhattan, New York. LEDO’s assignment was to review and
evaluate the vision and concept, including the overall theme, components
and entertainment program mix, as well as operating and capital
costs and to both validate and confirm this concept and preliminary
business plan, or to modify the ideas and direction, as necessary,
to establish a sustainable operational and economic model for the
project.
The Coney Island Experience Museum is planned to be an interactive
“edutainment” attraction that uses Tower Entertainment
Inc.’s over 4,000 artifacts of Coney Island’s history
and heritage to engage and entertain visitors. A number of preferred
site locations in the Midtown area of Manhattan had been identified.
