B&B Carousell, Historic carousel in Coney Island, Brooklyn, United States
The wooden carousel features fifty hand-carved horses and two chariots arranged in eighteen sections that rotate around a central mechanism.
William F. Mangels constructed this merry-go-round between 1906 and 1909, with Marcus Illions creating the initial horse carvings for the attraction.
The B&B Carousell stands as the last operating carousel in Coney Island, representing the entertainment heritage of this Brooklyn neighborhood.
Located at 1615 Boardwalk inside Luna Park, the carousel requires riders to measure 42 inches in height unless accompanied by an adult.
The lead horse displays a commemorative plaque marking its creation for President Abraham Lincoln's centennial birthday celebration in 1908.
