I too am looking forward to the Iron Shark. It is definitely a shame and a crime to be in such a big city with not one theme park(San Antonio has two). I wish I could purchase all of the defunct coasters and create a theme park to honour them in tribute. I know it's a costly idea but I think it would be cool, I guess. I think Earthquest is a no-go. Didn't they have until March to acquire the funds to build? The sad thing is that the space where Astroworld once was is just a gated grassy field. Nothing is there. Unbelievable!!!

Hey, I study architecture in the UK and I’m really interested in how people feel about abandoned theme parks and also about specific rides. I find theres a certain nostalgia towards them and a lot of memories buried in them. I'v heard a lot about Six flags and theres definitely a lot of people who are sad to have seen it go. Any comments you have would be really welcome. Thanks.

I haven't had a reason to go down there since Six Flags closed up shop, hopefully they have some success and just maybe I may try and make it down there soon to check this and Kemah Boardwalk out. It also helps that the Mariners will soon be division rivals of Houston in 2013, I smell a baseball/coaster weekend in east Texas next summer…
