Childs Restaurant, Spanish Colonial Revival restaurant building on Riegelmann Boardwalk, Coney Island, US.

The two-story beige building features ornate marine decorations, terracotta details, and arched windows along its extensive frontage on the boardwalk.

Constructed in 1923 by architects Dennison & Hirons, this establishment served as a flagship location for the Childs Restaurant chain until the early 1950s.

The restaurant's maritime-themed architecture includes decorative motifs of Neptune, shells, and fish carved into the facade's terracotta elements.

The structure now houses Kitchen 21, which operates multiple dining spaces including a clam bar, cafe, rooftop bar, and restaurant with ocean views.

The building connects directly to Ford Amphitheater, a 5,000-seat performance venue that opened in 2016 as part of the location's redevelopment.

Architectural style: Spanish Colonial Revival architecture
