Victorian Gardens Amusement Park

September 16, 2016

As a kid, there’s nothing like hearing the brass whirl of horn and the clacking of rides, smelling the insistent aroma of popcorn, and feeling freshly spun cotton candy melt in your mouth. Living in the Central Park rental apartments at The Nicole offers proximity to the world’s greatest urban oasis and, during the summer, an opportunity for your child to experience those same vivid little joys at the Victorian Gardens Amusement Park—the sole outdoor amusement park in Manhattan. Set in Central Park’s Wollman Rink, next to the zoo, carousel, and Heckscher Playground, the vintage-inspired rides at the Victoria Gardens may just make you nostalgic for an earlier age.
