That idea and spot would have been successful anywhere in the world, except for Waterbury, Ct! I grew up and recently moved back in Waterbury and it has changed for the worse! Although, I will ALWAYS love Waterbury, it is a very tough place to live! For me it is all nice childhood memories that I relive at every turn of the streets!

I live 20 minutes from this place but have never taken the trek over although I've always wanted to! I didnt know if it would be worth risking a tresspassing charge for but it might be just for that beautiful view alone!! Great video man! 👍

In Orlando, we had THE HOLY LAND EXPERIENCE. It also failed, a few years ago. We have quite a few Theme Parks, that failed here in Florida, such as Pirates World, Six Gun Territory, and Circus World.

Yes, I have heard of those places and would love to check them out. Abandoned theme parks are MUCH less common in Connecticut. Thanks for watching!

My X GF in 2012 showed me this place with her then 11 yr old son. At that time when he was running up the hill to show me the other metal cross on the ground by the one standing he then said there was a small ferris wheel tiped over further right of where we were so I followed him & surprisingly enough he was right. It was very small like a kiddy type ride again laying flat yet the carts were still attached and looked in decent shape. A few of the seats were all torn yet 2 looked untouched. The place looked nothing like now and I remember we had to squeeze through a fence to get up the hill as the road then ened. I remember taking video of it as I thought it was pretty odd and creepy that living here for 3O years then I never heard of such a place yet that was on a IPhone 3gs which I nolonger have but definitely remember the ferris wheel. Whoever got the contract of putting that road in & fixing this place up possibly removed it as it certainly couldn't been stolen but I assure you it was there. Great Video.👍

When I was in high school this was deemed as like a creepy and haunted spot also as far as I know a girl was murdered there and dropped off at brass mill center mall
