The Amusement Park at Sloan's Lake
Autor David Forsythen Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 apr 2024
Manhattan Beach played an important role in amusement park history in the United States, but its full story has never before been told. Manhattan Beach¿s story is an important addition to both Denver and Coloradös history as it reflects the city¿s growth during the late 1800s and early 1900s. The park has also inspired many legends, the most famous of which concerns Roger the Elephant, who arrived at Manhattan Beach in 1891, and his supposed death and burial in a swamp near the park. Much of what has been told about Manhattan Beach in the years since it closed is more myth than fact, as this book demonstrates. After the amusement park closed in 1914, the city of Denver purchased the land and turned it into Sloan¿s Lake Park, which continues to be a gathering place for Denverites.
