I visited this beautiful carousel with my granddaughter, and together we re-lived my childhood experiences of riding the galloping horses. It is terrific value. If you have a toddler they get to ride with you for free! And the tickets have different photos of the...More

Seen it

We went to look just to see it. Few families there think it’s a couple of dollars so worth it if you have children with you. Nice to see it but as a couple it was just to see it

Well preserved carousel

Jane's carousel is in Dumbo alongside the river in a glass building. It's been well looked after and restored, well worth a visit. For a small fee you can ride the carousel, very popular, but the queue does move quickly.

Rode this carousel as a kid in Idora Park - Youngstown Ohio

The carousel was restored beautifully! Cheap to take a nostalgic ride - $2. Will ride it again when I get back to NYC for certain.

Visiting in December my 5 year old would love this. Is it far from walking over the Brooklyn bridge?

March 12, 2018|

Answer

It’ll take about 25-30 min crossing the bridge weather permitting then another 10 from off the bridge

Can you get to the park from a train station in Manhattan by bus or Subway? I rode that carousel many times as a child growing up in Youngstown and would really like to ride it again. We do not drive any longer but can take a train from our home in Pennsylvania.
