Puritas Springs Park and the Cyclone that ran down the Rocky River valley wall
Puritas Springs, Cleveland, Ohio
Save Share
The west side's first amusement park opened in June 1900 on the rim of the Rocky River valley. John E. Gooding bought it in 1915 and hired the coaster designer John A. Miller, who used the drop into the valley to build the Cyclone, the highest and fastest ride in Cleveland when it opened in 1928. The park closed on Labor Day 1958 and a fire took most of what was left the following May. Wreckage of the coaster lay on the hillside into the 1970s.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
