Paragon Park, Coastal amusement park in Hull, Massachusetts.

The Philadelphia Toboggan Company carousel featured 66 wooden horses, 2 Roman chariots, 36 cherubs, and 18 goddess figures adorning its grand structure.

Established in 1905 at Nantasket Beach, Paragon Park operated for eight decades until 1984 when it closed to make space for residential development.

The Giant Roller Coaster stood as the largest wooden coaster in New England, making Paragon Park a central entertainment destination for generations of families.

The park provided seasonal employment to more than 300 local students and senior citizens during its summer operations at Nantasket Beach.

The original carousel from 1928 remains in operation at its current location next to an old train station, preserving a portion of the park's heritage.
