No matter what age you are, you will never forget your first visit to Astroland. Between riding the mighty Cyclone, or a ride on Dino's Wonder Wheel you will have a great time. There are plenty of arcade games to play as well. Watching the fireworks on the boardwalk on Coney Island is also a joy.

Parachute Jump

Attraction

Quote:

The Parachute jump is a historic NYC landmark. In the 1930s it was a thrill ride and you could see servicemen take their girlfriends up the parachute jump. It is no longer a ride, but a great place to look at. This can be viewed all the way from the Manhattan Beach section of Brooklyn.
