1622 Mermaid Ave

1622 Mermaid Avenue is located in the heart of the Coney Island neighborhood of Brooklyn, one of New York City’s most recognizable waterfront districts known for its tourism, beach access, and ongoing residential development. The property sits along Mermaid Avenue, the primary commercial corridor that runs parallel to Surf Avenue and the Coney Island Boardwalk, serving as a central retail spine for local residents and seasonal visitors. The area benefits from strong accessibility and foot traffic due to its proximity to the Coney Island Boardwalk, Luna Park, and the New York Aquarium, which collectively draw millions of visitors annually. The site is also within walking distance of the Coney Island–Stillwell Avenue Station, a major transit hub served by the D, F, N, and Q subway lines, providing direct connectivity throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan. Surrounding the property is a dense residential population supported by large apartment complexes and ongoing redevelopment throughout the peninsula. Within a one-mile radius there are roughly 63,000 residents, providing a consistent neighborhood customer base in addition to seasonal tourism traffic. Mermaid Avenue continues to experience gradual revitalization, with new residential developments, infrastructure upgrades, and retail activity reinforcing the corridor as a neighborhood commercial destination. Businesses in the area benefit from a mix of year-round local demand and increased summer foot traffic generated by the nearby beach, entertainment venues, and annual events such as the Mermaid Parade.
