So I thought we should have a separate thread for this, because honestly going in between threads for these different renovations is quite a jumbled mess.
Anyways, with recent trends showing renovations happening towards the front of the park; I think this is an indicator as to the future plans for the park. My theory on the subject is exactly what the title of this thread is, a park wide renovation plan. Honestly, this is just based on theory for the most part; but there is some fact behind it for it to be possibly true.
My point can be proven through three names. Killarney, Oktoberfest, Banbury Cross. Each is the name of a park hamlet, and each has/is gone/going through a renovation just recently. In 2009, Killarney featured all-new attractions. I understand there wasn't much of a renovation going on here; but it was more or less a renovation of attractions to get people to flow into that area of the park more. Then in 2011, Oktoberfest featured an all new ride and culinary feature as well as the beginning of a new hamlet renovation. In 2012, the hamlet got another featured ride, and the rest of the hamlet's renovation was complete with new color scheme and all. In 2013, Banbury Cross will have a new shop, or at least a refreshed shop, a renovated deck area, and the ticket booths up the hill will be refreshed. In 2014, Banbury Cross will also feature a brand new live show.
As you can see, everything is point to a park wide renovation, and with that the park has also been updating their bathrooms, and I'm not pointing that out for no specific reason. I think the bathroom renovations are being done for a few reasons. First, their older bathrooms are in dire need of some updating. Some of them (England's) are dated and just feel old. The newer renovated restrooms have a much more modern and updated look and feel. Secondly, park attendance is increasing year by year for the most part. They need to be able to handle the crowds and some bathrooms could start having waits. Thirdly, like I said the park is looking to renovate itself, and the bathrooms are a key indicator that the park is old and needs some updating.
I may just be seeing things, or connecting things that could connect but really don't, but honestly I feel like this is what is going down. SO my question now is what hamlet will get renovated for 2015?
