Luna: Pittsburgh's Original Lost Kennywood by Brian Butko
Paperback; Used — Very Good condition
MSRP: $12.95
Luna follows the intertwined stories of two very different amusement parks in suburban Pittsburgh: Kennywood in West Mifflin and Luna Park in North Oakland. Butko takes readers on a rollicking trip to the rowdy picnic spot first called Kenny’s Grove, then we meet the Ingersoll family of inventors who go from building rides at Kennywood to creating its chief competitor, Luna.
All but forgotten a century later, Luna saw its legacy revived in 1995 when Kennywood Park opened Lost Kennywood, an area modeled after Luna and other “world’s fair”-style parks. Kennywood and its competitor now co-exist in their own unique way.
