Jane Walentas has been restoring this carousel, originally built in 1922, since purchasing it in 1984. Its current home, a converted spice warehouse, isn’t large enough to safely accommodate riders.
In its transient state, with 1200 lights and 24k gold detailing, it’s another gallery-hopping stop in Dumbo. Walentas hopes to relocate the finished carousel in a nearby park. Until then, children can look but they can’t ride.

Great image!
