Jane's Carousel

The other day was spent in Brooklyn Bridge Park checking out Jane’s Carousel. A restored carousel from 1922, it is a beautiful addition to the park.

I admired the woodwork, scenery panels, and all the details that went into the construction of the carousel. But I was most impressed with the horses. 


What’s not to love? With their varying colours and expressive faces the horses illustrate how a carousel can be a piece of art.


In addition to the carousel, Brooklyn Bridge Park offers wonderful views of the city, which I was lucky enough to enjoy before the skies opened up and drenched us on our way home.
