The fire took place Jan. 30, and Castaway Cove, located just south of 10th Street has remained closed since.
No one was injured in the fire. The cause of the fire has been ruled accidental by investigators and blamed on an undetermined electrical source.
Brian Hartley, vice president of Playland’s Castaway Cove, told OCNJ Daily earlier this week that most of the park s rides were not damaged, and he expects 18 to 20 of them to be up and running when the boardwalk attraction reopens. March 27 is as quickly as we could possibly open. We are excited to get back open and back to a little bit of normalcy, Hartley told OCNJ Daily.
