Coney Getting Temporary Roller Rink for the Summer

Coney Island entrepreneur Dianna Carlin, aka Lola Staar, will be opening a temporary roller rink near the boardwalk this summer. Details come from Sarah Ryley in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, who writes that "details are being finalized to install a temporary roller rink near the boardwalk." Ms. Carlin would identify the location until a formal announcement is made, however there are limited possibilities, the most likely of which is land owned by developer Joe Sitt. Ms. Carlin is organizing a "Save Coney Island" fundraising event at Southpaw in Park Slope this Saturday (March 8).
