Located at the intersection of Surf Avenue, West 25th Street, and West 27th Street, this playground takes its name from the nearby avenue. Named for the waves of the Atlantic Ocean that break upon the nearby beach, Surf Avenue is one of Coney Island’s three major east-west thoroughfares that feature maritime names (Neptune Avenue and Mermaid Avenue are the other two). All three avenues have witnessed the rich history of Coney Island.
