A
lackluster amusement park on
Centre Island in
Toronto and is a hot spot for
American Tourists,
children and
teens who
grope one another on the
dark and
haunted house-type ride.
Some other features that Centreville carries include:
-A maze of
cedar bushes;
-The Zumba
Flume;
-
The Scrambler;
-
Mini Golf;
-
Bumper Boats;
-a
Petting Zoo;
-
Bumper Cars;
-A
scenic train and a
Skyride Parasol thing that can be seen in one of the
Police Academy movies.
Aside from the obvious need for polish, Centreville is a relaxing place to walk through. There are no cars and you're free to wander around the rest of the
islands and explore the other places to see but its an
eerie place to
walk through at
night, or while
intoxicated. The
theme of the park is a
town in a
Western façade and at night, all the
windows and
doors are boarded up and
chained across. The feeling of
emptiness and
unpopularity of Centreville is
amplified at this time and it makes you want to leave
quickly.
Children of young ages appreciate Centreville the most, as they are entertained with an
assortment of rides that allow them to steer cars through pathways by themselves as well as the
carousel and
ferris wheel.
To get to the
island, board the
ferry to
Centre Island from the
docks at
Bay St. and
Queen's Quay. If you go at
night, make sure to
note what time the last ferry to the
city leaves.
