 A "Kiddieland" collection of carnival flat rides, a "Bud" Hurlbut miniature train and petting zoo were installed on the silted-in new sand and public restrooms were built of concrete and cinder-block near a new picnic area, giving it a post-World War II modern look, and the park was renamed "Nu-Pike" as result of a write-in naming contest.In 1969, the name changed again to "Queen's Park", to coincide with the public opening of the historical ocean liner RMS "Queen Mary", which the city had purchased as a combination tourist attraction and hotel.The park retained this name until closing and demolition (1979–1980).
