Those were the days, when the park was operating. I used to take my oldest son there when he was a toddler. It's a shame that it's gone.

Long Branch has turned into Pier Villlage (hoyty toyty) and Asbury is undergoing a rehab.....Finally.

Palisades Amusement Park was 10 minutes from my house. What a sad day when that place closed...and Palisades Park was thereafter referred to as Pal Park. What a shame.

My childhood memory is of Euclid Beach | Dudley Humphrey | Euclid Beach Photos - home of the popcorn ball and I LOVED the Kisses - yummy! The Laughing Sal - my sister used to carry me by "that thing" while I screamed at the top of my lungs - that thing scared the crap out of me! And the Haunted House - I still have deep-seeded ill will towards my sister for that - and the roller coaster - traumatic!! When I was lucky enough to go with my oldest sister it was quite fun. Annabelle (her member name, not her real name), if you ever read this - that's what's wrong with me today
