  • Although that is Rockaway, I do not think it is Rockaway Playland. That is one of the small kiddie amusement parks near the boardwalk at around Beach 4th Street. I used to go there all the time in the early 60's and have similar home movies. It was right near Jerry's Knish's

  • Nope. That is Rockaway's Playland for sure. That is me on thr rides and I was never in the park in Far Rockaway!

  • yes-the smell! what a great memory

  • also, that was not at beach 4th st

  • woww! Just watched this video, I have been on all of those rides that is showed on here! That is Rockaway Playland, that's for sure! Been there so many times during the early 60's every summer. I have home movies of me and my siblings on all those rides, it has been transferred to a VHS tape, now I will have to find out if I can transfer them to a CD, If I can, I would def post it here!

    Rockaway Playland surely rocked back in the day, every kid's fun times!

  • Wow. I remember "driving" one of those boats as a kid. Many, many fond memories. Thank you!

  • i lived right i mean RIGHT next to playland on 97th street growing up, i miss those days alot. Just watching all the clips pf rockaway makes me tear up, I miss it alot. i remember the closing of playland and what it became now is incredible what happens over time. I remember my 18th birthday we started at 116th street and went down to 88th, we hit 20 something bars bars in that sort of a distance. Rules didnt apply to rockaway as they did the rest of the world

  • Yes, that's Rockaway's Playland. We have home movies of me and my brother on some of the same exact rides around 1965.

  • Damn, that brings up some memories. If I think about it I can remember how it smelled- cotton candy mixed with ocean breeze.

  • everytime i sit in tap and grill I think of playland!!!
