I'll never forget getting to the top of the roller coaster and looking out across the Hudson at the Manhattan skyline before the coaster took that big plunge!

Thanks for the memories.

I was there is the mid-thirties. 70 years ago is quite a memory stretch. It was a ferry boat ride across the Hudson from Manhattan to NJ. I think it was around 125th St. What I remember most was the huge pool. I think they called it a salt water pool. We didn't do any rides, just walked around. It was a good childhood memory.

Perhaps better was a ride on the elevated subway lines. A nickel for my father and a 5-6 year old could limbo under the turnstile. The seats were straw and the windows were open. Some of the quick turns between buildings was like a roller coaster ride [or so it seemed]. How did we ever manage without an I-Pod.

I still remember the TV commercial jingle. I'm singing it now!

I grew up in Teaneck and River Edge.

I have many fine memories of Palisades Park. The roller coaster, for it's time, was awesome.

I took many dates to the park. I remember holding hands made sticky by cotton candy J
