Cedar Point Announces New Water Ride for 2010 Season

You're killing me Smalls! :)

Way to go Tony! thanks

Qeustion:

First of all, I'm assuming the tunnel is still going in right? It doesn't look as if it will fit, because one of the hills seems to get very close the ground right when you come out of the station. There's room I guess?

I asked that same question, and was told it was the angle of the camera that makes it look tight. There is plenty of room.

Looking at the web cam, it doesn't look like they have too much to do. All the concrete looks as if it's been poured already. Hopefully the snow is done for good this time.

It just occured to me while staring at the newly restored web cam that the island shown in the artist rendering in the middle of the millenium island splash pool did not make it to the final design...thought that was gonna be a nice spot for some animatronic moonshine brewing...

I don't know if they have removed that island or not Jo. They may just be pouring the concrete foundation and then be putting the island on top of that.

Ha , spotted critter activity in the water at bottom left... looks like that dyke has been removed....

yet another foundation for a building on the Millenium Force side of main pump house?

^Yea, I see that there. I can only presume that it is either the mythical "ride photo building" that we've been hearing about (most likely not, as that woud be a teribble location) or perhaps the two buildings already up are the main electricial houses and the building currently taking shape is the main pump house. I guess only time will tell!

For those of you that can't find it, it is in the upper right hand corner of the webcam.

The building in the upper right at the bottom of lift #1 would be a pump/filter building. Since there is no way to make the flume one long continuous trough, there will have to be a pump house for the island and also for the park side of the ride. Pumps are needed on each side to get water to the top of the lifts.

NO, im talking about beyond the freakin main pump house....toward the MF is flat work area

and the photo building is off screen bottom right!

It's the beginning of a storage building. Or the foundation for the station of a 700-foot-tall hyper twister suspended woodie that we forgot to tell you about.

You be the judge! ;)

Calm down killer! It's nothing to get worked up over. Apparently my eyes are not as good as yours because all I saw past the filter building was a bunch of junk and misc. construction equipment.

But look at that, Tony answered you. It's nothing more than a storage building.

...im not the one explaining 2 different pump buildings for 2 seprate systems.......

so is that the seville warehouse district?.........

No but you were the one asking a question. Glad to see that instead of a "Thanks" you post how incorrect I was and that my answer was not even close to what you were talking about. Even though my post was directed at RideWarrior, not you. Hence I was posted after him/her and used a carrot (^).

And while I am at it, try using the "Edit" button on each of your posts when you want to add something. There is no need to double post every time.
