THANK YOU, MR. SIMMONS!! This video is a Treasure! I practically grew up at Crescent Park and have tried to keep it alive in my mind for many, many years.......this video took me through a walk down memory lane and brought a tear to my eye. Thank you again for your foresight to have filmed this era, where the ladies still wore dresses and handbags....what a wonderful time. PLUS, your film of the Carousel is such a treat. I rode on that from the time I had to be lifted into the seat until I would go with a group of friends as a teen and catch the brass ring ( which I did, I might add on several occasions ). Thank you again.
~THANK YOU, Very Much! Nobody Today Will EVER Know How "GOOD" It Was, And The One's That "DO,, Know That We'll Never Get Those Days Back Again... ~I Was Very Fortunate To Experience CRESCENT PARK, And ALWAYS Went On About It Closing, & Would Always HOPE That Something Would Happen That Would Cause The Park To Reopen Again After Closing, , , Sadly, The Occasion Never Did Arise, And As Well, Video Can Never Truly Capture A Way Of Life, So True America No One Will Ever Know, Thank GOD For At Least Allowing Us To Have Our Moments, And Thank You For Trying To Keep Them Alive...

That's the park I knew and remember fondly.
Beautiful memories here, thank you!!
It's a great thing that the carousel still remains today in 2020, better than ever...

Candlebrook Crescent Park
I remember the advertising for this park from when I was a kid. Sadly, we never visited, we always hit Rocky Point, also gone.
That was awesome!
Great memories
Was the Alhambra Ballroom across the street from the Carousel?
I would imagine homes on the Terrace heard the noise.
~THANK YOU, Very Much!

~I Was Very Fortunate To Experience CRESCENT PARK,
And ALWAYS Went On About It Closing, & Would Always
HOPE That Something Would Happen That Would Cause
The Park To Reopen Again After Closing, , ,
Sadly, The Occasion Never Did Arise, And
As Well, Video Can Never Truly Capture A
Way Of Life, So True America No One Will
Ever Know, Thank GOD For At Least Allowing
Us To Have Our Moments, And Thank You For
Trying To Keep Them Alive... T.Y. Respectfully!
