The Forest Park Carousel was originally made for Lakeview Park in Dracut, Mass., and was restored and moved to the 500-acre Forest Park in 1973.  "Even when I was a young boy, I knew the carousel was special," said Alex Blenkinsopp, communications director for the Woodhaven Residents' Block Association. "The carousel is here to stay, and we couldn't be happier."
