Eldridge Park, Amusement park in Elmira, New York.
The 15-acre Eldridge Park features an outdoor stage, picnic areas, a wooden roller coaster, haunted house, shooting gallery, and bumper cars.
Dr. Edwin Eldridge, a pharmacist, established the park as a sculpture garden before the city of Elmira acquired it in 1889 following his death.
The park's restored 1890s Looff Carousel contains 56 hand-carved animals and two dragon benches, reaching speeds of 11.5 miles per hour.
Eldridge Park operates from May to September, offering multiple attractions including miniature golf, a train ride, and food vendors throughout the grounds.
Local folklore suggests Eldridge Lake was bottomless with an underwater tunnel connecting to Seneca Lake, though its actual depth measures 39 feet.
