Photos: Inside The Jane Carousel In Brooklyn Bridge Park

Last week, we took a look at the somewhat controversial Jane Carousel in Brooklyn Bridge Park from a bit of a distance. This week, since Hurricane Irene didn't destroy it, we get a more detailed look. Photographer Stephen Murray got up close to the "action," snapping a few shots of the Carousel's interior—check out those hyper-detailed paintings below the spokes! No horses (or other animals) appear to have been installed yet, but the Carousel's opening date remains September 16th, after which point it will be running from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily (closed Tuesdays), with rides going for $2 a pop.

  • I know.  That tree was gorgeous and enjoyed it on a daily basis--even when the park was closed.  So beautiful and now we've got this.  Glad they skirted any sort of agency/public review by privately funding this thing.

    This is all good and fine, but WHY DID THEY HAVE TO CHOP DOWN THE WEEPING WILLOW TREE?

    If Baltimore has a carousel, we need at least 3.
