Pioneer City: A western-themed amusement park in Broward

Pioneer City was a western-themed amusement park in western Broward County that opened in 1966 and closed less than two years later. Built during the heyday of TV westerns, the park was a built-to-scale Dodge City with a saloon, general store and cowboy actors who staged gunfights at high noon, bar brawls and hangings. The park land later became Long Key Nature Center.
