Skateland
Opening in 1947, Skateland was owned and operated by "Red" Shattuck, known by many as "Pops."
Skateland was very popular up until the last years.
Skateland was built on an empty corner lot on Balboa and Great Highway. The corner had been used for rides for many years, while the back area was once used for the Rocket speedway. The corner was originally part of the Pavilion, called The Annex.
