Burroughs & Chapin (B&C) announced today that a new mini-park named the Pavilion Nostalgia Park will be installed at Broadway at the Beach (which is owned by B&C), near the movie theaters.

The new park is slated to open next summer and will feature the following rides that were originally located at the Pavilion: the historic carousel, the pirate ship, wave swinger, caterpillar and a few of the kiddie rides.  The German organ will also find a new home at the park.  A retail store and historical section are also planned.

B&C said that the park will be built in phases and they also hope to build a roller coaster at the site in the future.

The Myrtle Beach Pavilion is currently being dismantled; currently the Hurricane roller coaster is coming down.

Burroughs & Chapin hasn't given details or a timetable for when the new development will take shape at the site of the Pavilion.
