Time Traveling Men in Black 3 May Have Saved Coney Island's Oldest Building

Finally, some good karma for the troubled Men in Black 3. In preparation for a May 2 shoot in New York, the production has leased the oldest building on Coney Island to the delight of nostalgic local residents. The Grashorn -- which was built in the 1880s and has been empty for years -- will likely be made to look like it did in 1969, since the plot of Men in Black 3 deals with time travel. Of course. Click through for an era-appropriate glimpse at the building.

According to local blog Amusing the Zillion, the Grashorn may even be kept open following the Men in Black 3 renovations/film shoot. At least one aspect of this production could have a happy ending.
