    THE MONTGOMERY COUNTY STORY Published Quarterly by The Montgomery County Historical Society Philip L. Cantelon Eleanor M. V. Cook President Editor Vol. 34, No. 3 August 1991 BETHESDA PARK: "THE HANDSOMEST PARK IN THE UNITED STATES" by William G. Allman If asked what late-19th century amusement park might have claimed to be "the handsomest park in the United States," first to come to mind would probably be part of the Coney Island complex or, on a more local level, perhaps Glen Echo Park or Marshall Hall. This boast, however, appeared in an 1893 newspaper advertisement for Bethesda Park, a short-lived (1891- 1896?) and rather obscure amusement facility in Montgomery County.1 In this, the centennial year of its inception, an examination of its brief history provides an interesting study of the practices of recreation and amusement in the 1890's and the role they played in suburban development. The last decade of the 19th century was the first decade of the era of the electric street railway, a major improvement in public transportation that contributed greatly to suburban development around American cities. With a significant extension of the radius of practicable commuting from the city center, developers could select land that lay beyond jurisdictional boundaries, embodied desirable topographical features, or fulfilled the "rural ideal" which was becoming increasingly attractive to urban Americans.2 The rural Bethesda District fell within such an extended commuting radius from the city of Washington, and had been skirted by the the county's first major transportational improvement - the Metropolitan Branch of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad completed in 1873.

  • Abandoned Am Usem Ent Parks
    Abandoned Amusement Parks There is something both sad and creepy about an abandoned amusement park. Perhaps it’s because a place that was once packed with fun seekers has become slowly choked with weeds. Or maybe it’s because the sound of children’s excited laughter has been replaced with the quiet creaking of rusted rides. When the only visitors are the spirits of those who died there many years ago, an amusement park can be a very scary place to visit. Within the 11 amusement parks in this book, you will discover a roller coaster Williams left to rot after nearly killing its passengers, deserted rides that are now home to alligators and snakes, and the ghost of a man who is still trying to ride a Ferris wheel that stopped working years ago.

Carnival Park was described as one of the city's greatest achievements. Located between 14th and 16th streets on Armstrong Avenue to Barnett Avenue (the current Ward High School athletic field), the park opened May 7, 1907. It ran for about two years as Carnival Park and was then leased to a carnival for another two years. The demise of the park is one of the cities biggest mysteries. No one seems to know exactly what happened to it and why it failed, but, according to the Kansas City Gazette Globe, the last scheduled (?) was Oct. 9, 1911, for the Knights of Columbus.

Outside Cover of Mission San José: public domain ii Introduction In 2015, San Antonio’s Tricentennial Commission created the opportunity for the citizens of San Antonio to rediscover their shared cultural heritage, history and to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the founding of our beloved City in 1718. Collaboratives were formed with public institutions to further develop presentations commemorating our City’s history. Many months were spent on these projects and in the year 2018, they will be presented to the public in open venues. An out-come of this year’s celebration is this publication, “Tricentennial Chronology and The Founding Events In The History of San Antonio And Bexar County”. The last published chronology of San Antonio was in 1950 by Edward Hunsinger. For this new study, approximately 1½ years was spent developing additional details and entries of events in San Antonio’s 300-year history. Other chronologies were studied, books were referenced and honored historians were consulted. Every attempt was made to edit and re-edit the many editions of the chronology until this latest edition is being published.

  • Landry's to Transform Galveston's Flagship Hotel
    MEDIA Ashley Pearce, [email protected] CONTACTS: Hailey Polzin, [email protected] Dancie Perugini Ware Public Relations 713.224.9115 TILMAN FERTITTA AND LANDRY’S ANNOUNCE PLANS TO TRANSFORM GALVESTON’S HISTORIC PLEASURE PIER Pier returns to roots as world­class family destination HOUSTON, TX (January 30, 2012) ‐ Today Landry’s reveals a monumental renovation plan for Galveston Island, transforming the Pleasure Pier into a world‐class amusement park for all ages. Landry’s vision recaptures the site’s original purpose as a pleasure pier, a preeminent destination venue for family fun. The magnificent multi‐million dollar renovation of the Pier is fully underway and is projected to o pen May 2012. In the late 1940s, Galveston’s Pleasure Pier was the largest of its kind in the country. America’s top dance bands routinely filled the mammoth Marine ballroom, while outside in an open‐air stadium patrons watched motion pictures and ships pass in the Gulf. A wide variety of midway concessions and rides, an aquarium and a designated fishing area were standard summer favorites along the Pier. For decades, Pleasure Pier operated as an iconic family destination, stimulating tourism and commerce. In 1965, The Flagship Hotel opened on the property, and once again the Pier earned significance for housing the only hotel in North America built entirely over the water. “The City of Galveston’s commitment to enhancing our Seawall experience has now been improved upon by one of Galveston’s own,” stated Mayor Joe Jaworski. “Galveston is proud to witness Mr. Fertitta’s and Landry’s historic investment in recreating the Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier.
