Lonely Planet review for Astroland

Many Coney Island boosters wept (at least on the inside) when this amusement park closed in 2008. Luckily, its most famous ride, the clackety, classic 1927 Cyclone roller coaster remains in operation and safe from future development owing to its placement on the National Register of Historic Places. The two-minute ride is well worth the price: it drops a dozen times and reaches a speed of 60mph on near-vertical falls.
