Riegelmann Boardwalk, Wooden boardwalk in Coney Island, Brooklyn, United States.

The Riegelmann Boardwalk extends 2.7 miles along the Atlantic Ocean shoreline, connecting West 37th Street to Brighton 15th Street in Brooklyn.

Edward Riegelmann supervised the construction of this wooden promenade in 1923 to link different sections of Coney Island and increase public beach access.

The New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the boardwalk as a scenic landmark in 2018, recognizing its role in Brooklyn's development.

Visitors can access the boardwalk daily from 6 AM to 1 AM, with designated areas for cycling and walking along the beach front.

The Department of Parks and Recreation maintains the structure using Douglas fir planks, hardwoods, plastic, and concrete materials for durability.
