Because the Merry-go-Round is currently in probate, your grandkids may have to wait awhile.

I woke up thinking about the Merry-go-round this morning. I’d love to bring my grandkids. I don’t live in CA & I’d love to come back with the grandkids to see this place where I had wonderful family memories.

We would all like to see the Merry-go-Round restored to it’s rightful glory! Thanks for your comment… fingers crossed the situation is addressed soon.

We are all in agreement… this low-cost ride delights kids of ALL AGES, and once the courts have settled the matter, hopefully the sounds will emanate again across this part of Griffith Park!

Hang in there, and thanks for the thumbs-up on the article!

Unfortunately we have no information on the court proceedings, but will continue to monitor and let folks know how it goes.

Thank you for the history and information! I am a living relative of Owner Warren R. Deasy. He was my dad’s cousin. This merry go round has so much history it should be around for many generations to enjoy!! I would love to see it running again!

Los Angeles must preserve its treasures such as the carousel for future generations to enjoy. Los Angeles like Paris has carousels.
Perhaps start a Gofund me page to save this treasure?

Joan… we greatly appreciate your comment and unfortunately this amazing ride has been in probate court limbo since shortly after the Covid pandemic. The court keeps pushing the issue back, but hopefully soon there will be a resolution.
