Well, it just got greener. The Hudson River Park\u2019s Chelsea Cove on Pier 62 now has a green Carousel with a green roof canopy designed by CRStudios Architects. The canopy sure does its job of protecting guest from nature\u2019s harshness well enough. It does a lot more too. The ride, now part of New York City\u2019s longest continuous river park, enables kids go closer to nature with a near experience with the indigenous species of the Hudson Valley. This includes a peregrine falcon, harbor seal, wild turkey, black bear, green-scaled Atlantic sturgeon, and a creature we\u2019ve thought to be imaginary all along, a unicorn! When the sun shines and smiles down on this amusement park, the solar panel system soaks in its energy to power up the Carousel.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nSuspended by a complex series of trusses, the canopy has a green roof of cacti. Amusement with a touch of green, this sure is a crown jewel of the park in the Big Apple.<br \/>\n<span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Solar-Powered-Carousel-2.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Solar-Powered-Carousel-2.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"308\" class=\"mt-image-center\" style=\"text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;\"\/><\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/entry_images\/0810\/05\/Solar-Powered-Carousel-3.php\" onclick=\"window.open(&#039;https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/entry_images\/0810\/05\/Solar-Powered-Carousel-3.php&#039;,&#039;popup&#039;,&#039;width=600,height=400,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0&#039;); return false\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow external noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Solar-Powered-Carousel-3-thumb-450x300.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Solar-Powered-Carousel-3.jpg\" class=\"mt-image-center\" style=\"text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;\" \/><\/a><\/span><br \/>\n[<a href=\"http:\/\/inhabitat.com\/2010\/08\/04\/fantastic-new-solar-powered-carousel-with-green-roof-in-nyc\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow external noopener noreferrer\">Inhabitat<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Remember those plastic horses you\u2019d ride on at the local fair that circled round and round, never ceasing to tire, that good old Carousel ride?
