Another trip to Barnes and Noble and I have spotted a book about the Palisades Amusement Park, which I did not notice on previous visits. Almost bought the book, but the long line at the checkout was in the way. Anyway, I ordered a copy online. This is as close to a book on Cliffside Park History. I sent an e-mail to the Arcadia Publishing inquiring on what it takes to publish a book about Cliffside Park along the line with our sister towns Fort Lee and Edgewater. I don’t know what will come out of this.
Hot East or Prefsser and all other old timers do you guys personally know Vince Garguilo (may be he is one of the posters on the board)

For those who ever visited the park, this book is sure to bring back cherished memories and re-create the thrills, laughter, and joy that was Palisades.
