Our beloved Parachute Jump! The most annoying myth is the one - TopicsExpress



          

Our beloved Parachute Jump! The most annoying myth is the one caused by sloppy research from the Landmarks Commission. Although the Parachute Jump closed for good in September 1964 and never operated again, the Landmarks designation report claims that the ride operated until 1968. The report erroneously claims that Coney amusement maven Norman Kaufman operated it after Steeplechase closed. Mr. Kaufman still gets a good laugh over this error. Make no mistake about this: the Landmarks Commission has the wrong date and the jump never operated after 1964.
