The Jane Carousel has been partially installed at Brooklyn Bridge Park, and while the BBP folk tell us "the site is under construction," the wall that was built up around it looks like it has been taken down—just in time for the storm! The carousel is in Zone A, but hopefully it will stay intact and be able to ride out Hurricane Irene alright. The animals appear to be MIA, so obviously they have boarded some sort of ark.
Here are some photos we took this week (it's tough to get close to the site, which is surrounded by other areas closed off for construction), but it will be open to the public in mid-September.
