Luna Park, Jeff Pierson, 2011. Luna Park was an amusement park located in Charleston’s West Side. Designed by amusement park pioneer Frederick Ingersoll, the park operated from 1912 until 1923, when a fire ravaged the site. Despite attempts to revive the attraction, the remnants were eventually demolished and replaced with single-family homes.
