Adventureland is an amusement park in East Farmingdale, New York, located on Route 110 (Broad Hollow Road). Adventureland has been operating since 1962 and is a popular attraction for children, schools, and day camps on Long Island. There are more than 30 rides, including three roller coasters and two water rides.
The park was renamed to Great Adventure Amusement Park. In the 1970s New York's Public Development Corp (PDC) took the land via eminent domain for the purpose of an industrial development. The property remained vacant and abandoned for years until being occupied by a movie complex, Toys R Us (closed in 2018) and office buildings. [54]
