Article is about an extremely tiny, insignificant street, which looks more like a pedestrian walkway, in Coney Island, Brooklyn. I have found absolutely nothing notable about it at all. It was originally a redirect to the street called Bowery in Manhattan, but later converted to an article and based on what I'm seeing in the first AfD, this is apparently the second time has happened (i.e. someone, probably the same editor, created this redirect before it was made to an article by an IP user, also probably the same person, citing that "Bowery Street" and "Bowery" are two very different, unrelated streets). As with the first AfD, a redirect would not be appropriate because I have never heard of anyone ever calling the Manhattan street "Bowery Street." It is simply called "Bowery" or "The Bowery" and this is an unneeded search team anyway. The creator of this redirect needs to realize that and the IP, if he's still here, should know that there is a Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion where redirects can be nominated for deletion instead of turning them into articles about something un-notable.
