firehawk fan Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 Any pictures? I've seen several questons asked about possible development areas but I've never seen any pictures. Thanks, Maria Quote
skaterboy22101 Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 They own 775 acres but only use about 364 of that. Quote
KI Kevin Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 so much potentail and not enough usage Using all of the land would create such a large park it would take a week to ride everything. Quote
rotag Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 which with the passes would create a new experiance on every trip. Quote
skaterboy22101 Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 The thing about Kings Island is that they boxed themselves in. They can expand, but it would be tough. Quote
KI Kevin Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 agreed. if they used that land in behind Son of Beast, that would be an extremely long walk Quote
rotag Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 what about an extension going from Firehawk all the way around to the pathway inbetween f/x theater and Vortex to add new rides. Quote
Diamondback FOF Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 They own 775 acres but only use about 364 of that. Actually, Kings Island owns less. That number was before some land was sold for GWL. I'm not sure what the current acreage is. Quote

Jasper Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 If you go up in The Eiffel Tower you can get a good view of the back of the park where The Beast is and you can see the parameter. If i am not mistaken either when you are riding The Beast and you are getting ready to go up the second lift hill you can actually see the boundary of the park. Quote
KingCobra Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 To access the undeveloped land behind SOB it would be quite hard, as FlightDeck runs against the boundry between the park and Great Wolf. It seems that the only way to get out there would be to cut back by FoF and Firehawk to expand X-Base first. Quote
zas Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 i always thought KI ran all the way down to the little miami river. look at KI on google earth, they have boxed themselves in. Quote
The Interpreter Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 Sigh: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?...t=0&start=0 647.3217 acres. And much of what the park no longer owns was kept by Great American Financial aka Carl Lindner... Quote
