Apropos of San Fran's Playland one may as well throw in the old Coney Island and nearly all those "trolley parks" of the the last century, by which I mean amusement parks mostly, often on beaches, lakes and rivers. Up where I live they're just about all gone,--Nantasket, Revere Beach, Norumbega--and the honkytonk that so often accompanied many of those places, as that's truly a bygone era now, and it's enough to make Tod Browning weep...
