Great
Rides a Short Ride Away
Forest
Park may have a carousel, but if you're looking
for a bit more speed and bit more thrill, you'll
have to leave Queens. There are two major amusement
parks - both in close proximity - that offer some
serious roller coasters.
And, with Coney Island's future in jeopardy, this
may be the time to hop over to Brooklyn's Astroland
Park.
