I went out to Coney Island today and got some photos of the interior of Playland. Playland was an arcade that closed around 1982 and has been boarded up every since. Over the last few years, the "Playland" letters have been dropping off. I've always been fascinated by what was behind the sealed doors and someone got access to it about a year ago when the wind blew down one of the doors.
Today I noticed that the side doors have been torn down so I was able to get a quick look and snap some photos. These photos had to be taken rather quickly because I was pretty sure I wasn't supposed to be there. I also wasn't able to walk into the structure because it definately was not safe. When I first arrived I startled a cat who bolted accross the place.
Some old murals..
There was a forgotten mirror ball..
I have been trying to find some old photos of this place while it was still in operation but so far I haven't had any luck.
