A bit of history in central park ft any history lovers. You do not see these old style carousels…read moremuch these days.. definitely worthy of a visit. Here is what the official website states. The first model was originally installed in 1871. The Carousel is one of Central Park's most popular and famous attractions. Since the first carousel arrived, there have been a total of four distinct models with the original model being powered by a horse or mule which walked in a concealed compartment underground below the attraction. The animals were taught to start and stop with the sound of a foot tap from the ride's operator above. The carousel installed at Central Park today is the Friedsam Memorial Carousel. It is considered one of New York City's finest examples of American folk art. It was crafted in 1908 by artisans Solomon Stein and Harry Goldstein. It features 57 hand-carved brightly caparisoned horses, two ornately embellished chariots and a mechanical organ. The structure was found in an old BMT trolley terminal at Coney Island. It was donated to Central Park by the Michael Friedsam Foundation in 1951. A ceremonial marker was placed on the exterior wall of the carousel building on the carousel's dedication day on July 2, 1951. This carousel was notably mentioned in J. D. Salinger's novel "The Catcher in the Rye" and is featured in the Marvel TV series "The Punisher" (though filming took place at the Forest Park carousel in Queens).

Yeesh. This carousel has definitely seen better days. While the price seemed reasonable, that was…read moreabout the only charming thing about it. The interior was "decorated" for Halloween with cheap cutouts and witches, etc. They have a no cell phone policy while the carousel is moving, for safety reasons I guess?? I think it's worth doing once to say you did, but that's about it.

This was amazing after visiting the firefighter museum! The kids were so excited to go on the…read morecarousel, and they truly loved it. Parents, FYI: their bathrooms are very clean! We used the family restroom and have zero complaints. The staff was incredibly friendly, too! ¡Esto fue genial después de visitar el museo de bomberos! ¡Los niños estaban súper emocionados por subirse al carrusel y les encantó muchísimo! Un dato para los papás (aviso): ¡los baños están muy limpios aquí! Usamos el baño familiar y cero quejas. ¡El personal además fue muy amable!

Nunley's Carousel is located between the Long Island Children's Museum and the Nassau County Fire…read moreFighters Museum. Google maps took me to the back of the carousel but there was no entrance. Luckily there is a small street to the right and we were able to get to the parking lot and go to the entrance. The carousel is house in a small building where it is protected from the elements. Tickets cost $4 for a single ride for the general public and $3 for members of the Long Island Children's Museum. You can also purchase a 10 pack of tickets at a price of $35 for the general public and $25 for members of the Long Island Children's Museum. The carousel has been restored to its former glory. It is a beautiful sight to see. Some of carousel horses go up and down others are stationary. There are also 2 chariots and even a lion (stationary). The music is classic carousel tunes. The hub in the middle is painted with murals of an older time as is the top of the carousel. The rife lasts almost 4 minutes. A very nice experience.

Heckscher Park is a beautiful park in the center of Huntington.

On the other side of the pond is a very fun kids playground with matted rubber ground for safety and so many fun interactive activities. Street parking, public restrooms, and dogs are allowed. Community events and festivals are also held here making this park an all around great Long Island park.

I was admiring the birds on the water and I walked and it helped pass the time. Keep a look out for droppings on the ground unless you don't care to soil your shoes. Nearing the end of my walk, I really wanted to spend some time on the bridge where most of the waterfowls were gathered. It turns out that a family was feeding them. The very last morsel was taken by one geese that miffed another geese and so it chase the other with aggression. Birds can be pretty brutal and they were quite huge so I had to stay away. What an unfortunate experience. Besides the lake, there's also a beautiful playground, picnic tables, a sports field and tennis courts. The Heckscher Museum of Art can also be found on the grounds as well as a September 11 Memorial. It is definitely worth a visit. There is decent amount of parking spaces all around the park for ease of access too.

Very awesome Carousel that kids and big kids like myself love. Very inexpensive and the conductor…read morewill allow parents to escort their kids without having to buy additional tickets. It is located in the park with a playground, walking tail around the lake, with ducks, etc. Good family time.

We just celebrated my daughter's first birthday at the carousel on 6/23/19 and let me tell you that…read morethe entire experience from start to finish was amazing. Every time I called or spoke to someone, they were so kind, willing to answer every question I had and assured me that everything would be perfect. They were right. The space for the carousel is for 50 people because that is how many chairs they have available. We had over 50 people there and you never felt crammed or squashed. There was SO much space. We had entertainers come and they had room to set up and put on their shows as well. They park provides 6 rectangular tables for guests to sit at as well as 3 other tables that could be used to food, gifts, favors..etc. The carousel operator ( I wish I would have remembered her name) was amazing- she was so kind and attentive and even gave the baby a t shirt! The staff working at the concession was also so helpful in letting us unload the food and drinks prior to the party start time. A special thank you to Emily who really went above and beyond to make sure everything went right. The weather was perfect too and it helps that the entire carousel section is covered so even if its hot outside, it was nice and shaded. Our guests were raving about this party for many days afterwards. We even had many native Staten Islanders who had come there for the first time. They will definitely be returning. I want to have every party there from now on. Thank you again to the staff, Do not hesitate to throw a party here because you well get your moneys worth and the experience will surely be a positive one.
