I loved that ride!!!
Aw man, I was hoping Lorain would buy it and put it at the end of municipal pier! We gotta start somewhere, right? :)
A lot of people in Sandusky were hoping that the iconic structure could be moved to the city's waterfront. But I imagine that the expense would have been mind-numbingly high. But it sure is sad seeing it all laying there in a heap.
as a kid on my yearly trip to CP, I would ride this first to make a
plan to the rides, next I would go to the haunted house, and beyond!
My last visit to CP was in 1968, but I loved going to the top of the Spaced Spiral when we were there; it\
's a shame they couldn't move it somewhere.
I wonder if it was just buried too deep to efficiently and cost-effectively relocate. There was no other view like that from the mainland.
Rest In Peace Space Spiral, 1965-2012
A great family icon ride with lots of great memories!! Will surely be missed!!
