    image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg So I was thinking, and I came up with these plans. Tell me what you think. What you think would work well!

    You have several things that I have predicted on there. Not bad.

    Here's my idea on this, I think they will evenutally connect the two and convert the entire south end to Gotham.

    1.) GCG either removed or relocated elsewhere in the park. In replacement, a Justice League ride, using the Johnny Rockets building as its front entrance. with this it allows:
    - A much needed signature family attraction
    - The interactive dark ride that they've been missing from their line-up
    - A worthy attraction for people to ride if their friends are on Superman.

    2.) A relocation of Joker to the South End, in replacement a new Zamperla Endeavor.
    - The relationship with Zamperla and six flags is going strong, they're efficient and reliable. I highly doubt the HUSS fly Away would ever return but this being a big flat ride, would be a worthy replacement for Nightwing.

    3.) Hall of Fame replacement with new flat or new live show.
    - A prime spot for a possible new family flat.

    4.) GOTHAM

    - I would see Mind Eraser staying, if the work on Ninja at SFOG works in their favor, I expect to see more of their rougher coasters get this upgrade. I think Mind Eraser will be around a lot longer than everyone expects it to and could easily be themed to a super villian coaster.

    - Blitz Removal, in replacement a signature flat ride. An Air Race seems like a more reasonable addition every year as their relationship grows. I always wanted to see a Mr. Freeze themed ride here...

    - Harley Quinn takes over the Tea Cups. The Penguin takes over Splash Water Falls.

    - The well needed re=paint of Batman, perhaps new fly-by affects and lighting package.

    - A relocated Joker where the basketball and hockey games are.

    5.) A connection route from DC to GOTHAM, this would help spread the crowds and make the park much more accessible.

    I think the original bridge was near Spider, but I'm not 100% sure. Does anybody have a picture of the old DC/Southend bridge?

    Yes the Original Bridge was near Skier it was a short Bridge that ran along the side of the car ride to Spider and into South end.

    The one thing I notice in your plan is your pulling 2 family coaster and the coasters coming in are both thrill. But I think you woudl have an issue adding a water pride in Ivy's spot. NE tallest would have to be in the 55-6oft range that's a very narrow area to have a splash down area. you might have to sacrifice the JL building as well.

    but I assume you are putting a VR attraction there so That could be relocated.

    I wasn't clear with this plan, but later posted a revised version on my Instagram. Catwomans Whip would be located behind batman, taking over a small section of the lot. And the HOJ would receive Flash:Speed Force, some kind of spinning flat ride. I believe that with an elevator lift, a tall water ride could definetly fit there. Possibly run parallel to Superman. Plus, I never mentioned a VR attraction, don't know where you got that from. @mrceagle

    Also, something like PULSAR at Walibj Belgium(Mack Powersplash) could work perfectly. It wouldn't need to be as huge as PULSAR, but could probably fit if placed parallel to Superman or on an angle. Hell, they could probably build up the back spike towards mind eraser into the hill, and save space like that. Now I know that all these additions aren't gonna happen at once, but I feel like a combo of some of these additions might happen one day.

    @dschu You didn't say anything about a VR attraction but you also didn't say what the Flash attraction was in your image. So I took a shot in the dark on what might be in the small building.

    glad to hear you have a plan to relocate Catwomans Whip. That area behind batman was my first choice in my find for a Thomas land. never could figure out why the park shoehorned a small area in the front of the park.

    Part of what I'm pointing out with the water ride is not the lift space it's the splash area. the taller you make ti the longer it will take to slow down. But to point out again it down need to be that tall to be the tallest in the area. The region only has 15 water rides and 5 of them are water slide or tub water attractions. you then have 1 splash battle and 3 rapids rides. That leaves you with 6 rides (1 chute and 5 flumes) with any height. These range form Bamboo chutes at 35 ft to Boston Tea Party at 50ft. So you would only need to brake the 50 ft mark to lame as NE tallest.

    Thanks for the info! I could've been more specific about flash, I was thinking more along the lines of the MAgic Mountain ride. And I just wrote tallest because I wanted to get attention. I don't care how tall it is.

    If they added a water ride I would like to see something more then a chute which would be the easiest addition to that spot. But the only way to get any long trough run would be to use multiple levels. Digging out that hill side would be costly but now I'm starting to day dream bigger then they will actually build.

    I still think if they remove the Shield queue area they could get another ride Flat in that area.

    God I love that plan so much. Although I would much rather see a Two-Face theme rather than a riddler theme for the 4D free fly. And hen with the relocated Catwomens whip, theme that to Riddler. Also I would much rather see a flying coaster themed to Wonder Women than the Aquaman ride. I like the Joker idea although an original name. And instead of Nightwing returning I would like to see a flat ride themed to Mr. Freeze possibly a rethemed Joker indoors in like an ice cave. I think that would make a great Gotham City. And now that I'm thinking about it, I would make the Joker a little more like Full Throttle but longer and without the backwards launch for better capacity. And that would make it a little more family with a 130 foot loop.
