Thanks to John Buchanan for sharing memories of Lincoln Park “ I went there as a kid, rode on the Comet roller coaster and Carousel. When I brought my two boys there in 1970 my memory was how sticky the asphalt walkways inside the Park were, probably from all the dropped cotton candy that melted and was never cleaned up. “
