Coney Island and Its Effects On Leisure

As the industrial revolution came to a close in the late 1800's and early 1900's Americans began to search for a more leisurely lifestyle away from the  factories that consumed much of their lives. Coney Island in Brooklyn was the perfect answer to their search. It offered a convenient place for the masses, rich and poor, to enjoy their time off and relax. In time Coney Island would transform itself from a quaint island with a beach and a casino, to a glamorous glowing amusement park.
	In Coney's Early years, the Island was all but divided by a wall. The Eastern end was home to a rich casino, where the more well to due people spent much time. And the western end was home to a beach where the less wealthy masses gathered. The Owner of Coney Island was a man named John McKane, who would soon transform this divided Island into the recreation center of the universe. 
	The change began at the eastern end of the island where McKane built the first ever roller coaster, called the "Switchback Railway", where four people could sit in a car that traveled along a course.
