Playland Amusement Park was a popular amusement park located in Seattle, Washington, operating from 1930 until 1961. It featured a variety of rides, games, and attractions, including a wooden roller coaster, a carousel, and various carnival-style games. The park was known for its vibrant atmosphere and family-friendly entertainment. Over the years, it became a beloved destination for locals and visitors alike. However, due to declining attendance and increasing maintenance costs, Playland eventually closed its doors, and the site was repurposed for other developments. Today, its legacy remains a nostalgic memory for many who enjoyed its attractions.Sources:
