Island Queen on the Ohio   Save
Ohio Guide Photographs
Description: Reverse reads: "Greene Line Steamer" The Island Queen, which leaves from Coney Island Wharf, is a steel, five deck boat. The white and green pleasure steamer, with room for 4, 000 passengers, features a 20, 000 square foot hardwood dance floor. This is the second Island Queen used to transport visitors to Coney Island. It was built in 1925 to replace the original, which burned in 1922. The boat hauls merrymakers from Cincinnati to Coney Island, 10 miles up the Ohio River, and back, which takes about half an hour, and is often ridden as an amusement unto itself. View on Ohio Memory.
