Playland at the Beach was an amusement park that opened in 1927 and closed in 1972. The famous funhouse mirror sequence at the end of Orson Welles's The Lady from Shanghai (1948) was filmed at Playland's Hall of Mirrors.

The park was modeled after New York City's Coney Island, which contained roller coasters, ferris wheels, merry go-rounds, fun house and a carnival midway. The site is now a condominium complex.
