On August 20, 2015 Ride Entertainment opened the SeaGlass Carousel, located at the Battery at the tip of Manhattan. This article in the New York Times describes the unique experience:
“New York’s New Carousel Puts You in a Whirling School of Mechanized Fish
COME with me to the Battery, to the tip of Manhattan, where the sea meets the city, where the sea once was, where the sea may be again someday.
We are going to ride through an underwater garden, inside giant fish that shimmer with electric bioluminescence. They dart and pause, skim and school within a nautilus shell of stainless steel and glass, set in the Battery Woodland, 200 yards from Castle Clinton, which served as the New York Aquarium until 1941.”
