Thank you - that's exactly what I thought. Now go to the Chase Manhattan full page ad in today's NY Daily News - here's what their ad says: "With Chase's help, Central Amusement International revitalized the original Luna Park site - all with a nod to its glorious past...."

Guess the Chase research department didn't dig deeply enough.....

You know where the Cyclone roller coaster is ?

Luna Park is is about 1/4 of a block west of the Cyclone on the south side of Surf Ave.

You can see it on any (F) or (Q) train after leaving West 8th St..

How do you explain this sentence from your link:

"Forty years later, fire destroyed the great Luna Park, and today a much smaller amusement area remains where Luna Park once stood."

He's talking about the old original Luna Park, not the new one.
