I remember going to concerts here in High School, I remember seeing Mahogany Rush there. My dad use to take us there. Could not compete with Cedar Point or King's Island I guess?
It's really creepy now all over grown. It reminds me of one of those "Life After Man" shows.

Fascinating! Thanks for posting that.

Cool erie ! We have a similar park here that has been operating I think since the late 1800's Dream Land now Seabreeze Park. Seabreeze has a operating wooden coaster The Jack Rabbit that dates back to around 1924 also !

Really an interesting visual piece! Thanks for posting!

We have a Merry-Go-Round in a city park here which was removed from an amusement park which closed in 1910 or so. One of the horses was featured on a USPS stamp a few years ago.

Sea breeze had a beautiful Philidelphia Tobogan Co. 1910 carrosel that burned about 10 years ago, some idiots working on the roof set it ablaze, my Dad used to run it as a teenager.

Hey, GoT, thinking about defunct establishments, is the old Cadillac/LaSalle dealership still standing on Rochester? I saw it in '86 when I drove up there with my dad. Seems like it wasn't too far from the Eastman Museum.

To the best of my knowledge yes let me check around.

Cool, thanks. I seem to remember that it was near a bridge underwhich a major road crossed through the city. The building had mostly glass front with "Cadillac" and "LaSalle" in gold lettering above them. Neat place!

Yeah, but a look in the mirror before you go out the door is always a good idea.
Don't get me wrong here either, my GF has a kinda big butt ;D

The Butt stops here... ;D
I have a photo of the Butt lighthouse up on the home Island on my wall..
a pic on the BBC site of a small wave hitting the Butt during some inclement weather... highest recorded wind speed for the station was 173mph... there used to be a foghorn too but that blew away...

Crystal Beach across Lake Erie in Canada was a fun place to take our kids. It's a gonner now. Lots of cool history there documented online.
I think the Cadillac dealer building was converted to something else, but I can't recall what!

Where's the Chicago contingent? We had Riverview in Chicago, and there was Kiddieland out in Addison. That property stood abandoned for over 20 years. I always wanted to do a band promo shot there. Fairyland buildings overrun with plant growth. Very cool for a backdrop. Then, there was the short-lived Old Chicago mall in Bolingbrook. Stores around the outside, and the amusement park in the center. I took a date there once.

We went there once during a visit when my older son was about 5. The mall looked newer but it was already dead. While we were walking around, the roller coaster got stuck. People were hanging upside down for several minutes and quite unhappy about it!
