    I'm not sure why the "Hell's Gate" tag has been added.
  • sheepbait said:
    In "additional information", it says that this photo was taken in 1910, when it clearly says on the photograph that it was taken on 5/27/1911

    "Hell's Gate" was an attraction at "Dreamland".

    This was most likely between 1910 and the Dreamland fire in May 1911.

  • ashwood2008 said:
    These types of scenarios remind of the movies, it's amazing that not that long ago shows like this actually existed right here in America. I hear so much about Coney Island, and to see it in what might have been its prime is a great treat.
