It will be built over the existing Padre Isles Golf Course. http://www.caller.com/news/2012/jul/10/schlitterbahn-water-park-resort-developers-eye/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Schlitterbahn must be doing something right, because it seems like they have been expanding a lot over the last several years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldiesmann Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Must be a nice area... Schlitterbahn is part of a proposed $552 million master plan for the island, which includes a marina in Lake Padre, an extension of the residential canal system, hotels, condos and single-family homes. A $117 million incentives package approved by City Council in May requires Schlitterbahn to begin construction within the next seven months and be finished with the first phase by summer 2013. Wikipedia says the island is about 1.6 miles wide but is 113 miles long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
