#OnThisDay in 1925. Mom and Dad look like they're regretting their decision already, but Cousin Cloche Hat is thinking, "Today is a good day to die."
Scarboro Beach Amusement Park opened in 1907 and closed in September of 1925. The area later became the subdivision south of Queen Street East between Wineva Avenue and Maclean Avenue.
