the park has been closed for 2 years.

If I ever won the lottery, I would have loved to buy this and fix it up.

maybe it is just nostalgia from my childhood, but I hate to see it gone

Firefighters are battling a major building fire at the now-closed Joyland amusement park.

The building ablaze is on northwest end of the park. Fire Marshal Ed Bricknell said fire officials are not sure which building is on fire.

Firefighters are using an aerial hose to fight the fire. Traffic is not disrupted in the area. Smoke from the fire is visible for several miles.

The park, a Wichita landmark since 1947, was closed in 2006. The park is at 2801 S. Hillside.
