The Fate of Coney's Dreamland

The message boards at Coney Island U.S.A. suggest that Dreamland, which was closed indefinitely by Thor Equities because of about half a million dollars in overdue rent from operator Anthony Raffaelle, might reopen this weekend. Since there hasn't been an official announcement from Thor or Raffaelle, does anyone know the official scoop? Coincidentally, September 7 marks the anniversary of the closing of Astroland in 2008, the long-time Coney Island amusement park and predecessor to Dreamland.
