Public Works
Anchoring the new Steeplechase Plaza is a vibrant pavilion housing the historic B&B Carousell. Rockwell Group designed a double-height drum with oversized bi-fold doors at the boardwalk level to house the restored carousel. The public space provides visitors with an open air experience and free passage through the pavilion. Attached to the center drum is a monumentally scaled “carousell” sign, using its original whimsical spelling in a variety of fonts and colors, reflecting the playful and layered history of Coney Island.
