I used to ride the carousel when I was a little girl in the 1940s. Thanks to the family who spent millions to bring this treasure back to life. Thank you oh thank you! It's so beautiful and brings back so many memories. Janice

I have to say, I was really upset when the beautiful willow tree was destroyed to make way for this carousel. But, being a parent, the smiles on my daughters’ faces when they ride the horseys certainly will make up for that. The carousel is another reason to enjoy the waterfront and another reason to enjoy our fine neighborhood.
R.I.P. Mr. Willow Tree. Your death shall not be in vain.
