When did they tear the facade of the IMAX theater down?

I was at CP in August and I could swear the facade - just the front part - of the old IMAX theater was still standing on the midway by the train station.

I was at CP today and it's gone.

Did they tear it down recently, or was I imagining things in August? Somebody tell me whether I'm crazy or not...

I won’t say that, but you are mistaken.
Maybe you’re thinking of the wall they built in front of Valravn. It separates the patio seating area from the ride. It was fitted with planters and they grew annuals there to give an appearance of a living wall.
I don’t know it it’s still there or not.

It's still there. That must be what I was thinking of. Thanks!

Yea, that ground was leveled before they began installing Valravn.

I was just there last Tuesday and I swear Demon Drop and Space Spiral were still there. Now they are torn down. Am I crazy or just being a jerk? ;)

I saw Knute Rockne throw a forward pass on the beach earlier this year.

I stayed at sandcastle suites on Friday night, when I went back Saturday my room was gone...
that might’ve been too much Surf Lounge though

A few weeks ago I took a ride on Frontier Lift. Went to use the restroom when I got off in Frontiertown. Then when I wanted a return ride back on, the station was all boarded up!

I rode Mean Streak last weekend when it was a walk-on, when I went to go back for a second ride, they changed the name to Steel Vengeance, the track was a reddish brown metal and the line was 2 hours!

Had the best ride of my life on White Water Landing last time I went, but when I went to get on again later, there were inversions and decidedly less water. I think I may be losing my mind.

Yeah, you were being a jerk operative_me along with all the followers. I guess none of you have made mistakes before in thinking something was one way but actually another.

^^Maybe, but I reckon if it made you post for the first time in 11 years, something came out of it.
