OCEAN CITY, N.J. - An amusement park in southern New Jersey that was severely damaged by a fire earlier this year will reopen later this month.
The Jan. 30 fire at Playland’s Castaway Cove in Ocean City destroyed a building that housed the park’s arcade and offices, a fast-food restaurant, a juice bar and a construction company office. But no injuries were reported in the early morning blaze, and the fire did not damage the park’s outdoor area or its rides.
