  1. First Santa’s Village, now Kiddieland. It’s sad to see these institutions go, even though they were nightmare factories for me as a kid. Brrr….

  2. Aaagghh! What’s next? Coney Island? No wait…NYC is playing hard-ball with developers so there’s still a chance….so sorry to see this close down, Splotchy. Kinda like losing a friend…

  3. I’m sad that it’s closing but I am secretly hoping for a public auctioning-off of the Kiddieland goods. I’d love some of their old signage.

  5. That sucks. I’ve never been there, but I hate to hear about the demise of iconic places. I guess nothing gold can stay, Ponyboy.
