Astroland, Amusement park in Coney Island, United States

The 3.1-acre entertainment complex at 1000 Surf Avenue contained 36 rides, including roller coasters, carnival attractions, and space-themed experiences.

Dewey Albert established the park in 1962 through Coney Island Enterprises, marking the beginning of a new era during the space race period.

The Astrotower displayed the Star of David during Hanukkah celebrations, connecting the park with local Brooklyn community traditions until 2008.

The park operated from March through November, providing entertainment options through different seasonal temperatures and weather conditions.

After closing in September 2008, the land transformed into Luna Park in 2010, preserving the location's entertainment purpose for future generations.
