This is the biggest and most ornate of Broome County's six Herschell carousels.
who doesn't like a carousel? this has been around for YEAR's and one of the last things you can do for free. if you find yourself getting off the highway and need a quick break to occupy the kids for a a minute, pull into this little park. this is history for this town, may you keep the carousel running. Thank you Johnson Brothers for starting this tradition, many families have grown up with this attraction.

This carousel was built in 1929, and is known for the rare Herschell dogs and pigs.
The whole of the Triple Cities of NY...Binghamton, Johnson City, Endicott...has been blessed with the gift from Shoe baron George Johnson of Endicott Johnson Shoes gift of six carousels with the caveat that no one will ever pay for a ride. West Endicott Park is probably closest to my home but there are two others in Endicott, one on Oak Hill Ave. in George W. Johnson Park and the on the east side at Highland Park, one in Johnson City near the Pavilion, and two in Binghamton, one at Recreation Park on the west side and the other at Ross Park Zoo. I mean, who with a pulse doesn't want to ride a carousel much less watch kids and adults go round and round for free with glee! All six are original and have been restored and maintained for you to enjoy, whoever you are, wherever you're from. The Triple Cities grabbed the brass ring so your next ride is always free!..

This is the only carousel of the six Broome Country Herschells that has been relocated from its original setting.
The Highland Park Carousel is very similar to the other 5 carousels in the Binghamton area.
The Highland Park carousel in Endwell was first installed in En-Joie Park in 1925 and moved here in 1967 after the first park was closed. It features 2 chariots and 36 animals, 3 abreast with a pig and a dog hidden among the horses (we rode them both). Its white rounding boards have shields with faces on them. There is also a lion skin instead of a saddle on one of the horses. It has no band organ; a CD played carousel music instead.

Ok, I haven't been to a movie house in a decade and thensome. And then more than some has changed. Faux leather recliners with cup holders, small viewing rooms rather than spacious halls of plush splendor. Ain't your grandpa's movie theater. Then I am a grandpa, aren't I? Oh well. Takes away the awesomeness of leaving the house for the glitz and glamour of Hollywood in a chapel of dark plush, romance and mystery; all the reasons for not sitting at home in your faux leather recliner with a snack on the lamp table next to you as you fall asleep? Plus, you gotta plan days in advance for the time and seat you want. The spontaneity of going to see a movie is gone, the ambience and atmosphere of it being something special is gone, and now I know why I am gone from these places.

This is a nice public park along the Chenango River. Nice long walking/running trails. Dogs are allowed in the park. There are public restrooms, large soccer fields, a large kids playground.
This park hosts the Binghamton Speidie and Ballonfest at the beginning of August every year.

This carousel was restored for its 60th birthday, in 1994.
just a dynamite little ride, again provided with the generosity of the Endicott-Johnson shoe folks.. what entertained the workers then pleases the passing public now, at no charge...

Great place to see a football game. Scenic and classic. The Army history shared throughout and the introduction of veterans adds to an excellent day. Note: believe them when they day arrive early. Once you enter the gates, it will take time to park and take a bus to the stadium.

This carousel's 60 horses are arranged in the uncommon four-abreast style.
One of the six in the greater Binghamton area, this is a large carousel with wooden horses and a Wurlitzer complete with a live bass and snare drum. Excellent in both looks and mechanics. Well worth the ride and as always, the price is right. FREE. But please donate to keep up the maintenance of tis fantastic piece of history.
