After seeing the no limits topic I thought I'd post this. This is a coaster I designed for a club at UC called coaster cats. It would go in Sigma Sigma commons on campus. The name of the ride is Queen City Flyer. Let me know what you think about the layout, etc.

The lines on the ground represent paths or boundaries and the trains would be similar to maverick trains.

So they're plopping a coaster in the middle of a college campus? Am I following along correctly? I clearly went to the wrong college. I wonder if clown colleges have stuff like this...

Not going to happen. This was just a project for fun that someone did as part of the Coaster Cats club.

Sigma Sigma Commons was designed by renowned landscape architect Hargreaves and Associates. Prior to the greenspace, that area on campus used to be surface parking lots. Needless to say the greenspace looks a lot nicer than barren parking lots. And, UC`s campus was recently recognized as one of the most beautiful college campuses in the country. Not sure I entirely agree with that. But it does have quit a collection of architecture from world renowned architect. Michael Graves (Engineering Research Center), Peter Eisenman (Aronoff addition to the DAAP building), Henry Cobb (CCM addition), Frank Gehry (Vontz Center for Molecular studies on the east (medical) campus), Gathmey Siegel (TUC renovation), Moore Ruble Yudel (Steger Student Life Center), Cambridge Seven (Central Utility Plant), Thom Mayne (Campus Recreation Center), and Bernard Tschumi (Richard Lindner Center). All of those buildings create a rather unique mix of architecture for a college campus.
