Jantzen Beach Carousel

The Jantzen Beach Carousel, formerly listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the C. W. Parker Four-Row Park Carousel, is a carousel formerly installed at Portland, Oregon's Jantzen Beach Amusement Park and later the Jantzen Beach Center shopping mall, in the United States, until 2012. It has been the subject of concern for historic preservationists since them, and a planned new site for the carousel was identified in 2017. As of September 2023, it was planned by Restore Oregon to be restored and relocated for display at the National Neon Sign Museum in The Dalles, Oregon.
