Colored historical video from Luna Park on Coney Island, New York City in 1910.
Luna Park was an amusement park in Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York. Luna Park was located on a site bounded by Surf Avenue to the south, West 8th Street to the east, Neptune Avenue to the north, and West 12th Street to the west. Luna Park opened in 1903 and operated until 1944.
Luna Park was located partly on the grounds of Sea Lion Park, which operated between 1895 and 1902. It was the second of the three original iconic large parks built on Coney Island, the other two being Steeplechase Park (1897) and Dreamland (1904). The park was mostly destroyed by a fire in 1944, never reopened, and was demolished two years later. Though another amusement park named Luna Park opened nearby in 2010, it has no connection to the 1903 park.

That giant tilting coaster thing looks insane 😱 Edit: apparently it was called The Top, or Scenice Spiral Wheel!

I WISH today's Luna Park had the charm of the OLD Luna Park as seen in this video. Sad.

Don't you wish there was a device which would allow you to travel back in time. You could choose a certain place and date and voila! you'd be gone. And you would also pick a time to return. Time travel. Great video thanks for sharing.

As You commented the film quality is amazing. Your coloring makes the video come alive. Just to think that all the people that are in this film are no longer alive is truly eerie.

Thank you for this... I'm writing a turn-of-the-century novel set in NYC including Coney Island and this was amazing research help.

Looks like an old Game Boy game auto-colorized by a Game Boy Color.

Now in place of this great amusement park stands a housing project thanks to Robert Moses.

From 0:14 to 0:25, there's a view of "Bowery Street", looking eastward, filmed from "Steeplechase Park". Luckily, the "Alamo" cabaret, the sign of which is clearly visible, determines the time frame this film was shot as summer 1918. This venue, at Bowery & Oceanic Walk, Coney Island, was named the "College Inn" during 1907 - 1915, then the "College Arms" 1916 - 1917, then the "Alamo" during 1918, then again the "College Arms" 1919 - 1923.
