Among the victims of last week's high winds was one of the "Future of Coney Island" signs put up by developer Joe Sitt this summer. The post known as Captain Nemo at the Coney Island Message Board, who recently posted photos of Thor's fallen construction fences, photographed this glimpse of the old sign for the batting cages torn down last winter. He writes: "...part of his sign covering up the artwork from the batting cage fell down, or ripped off from the recent wind storm." It's going to be a long winter and spring at Thor's Coney properties.

Like we would forget anyway
