I was just thinking, lets say in the next like 8 to 10 years they wanna add another major coaster. Where would they fit it? Besides where Drachen was

I always thought they could put one in the forest between England and Ireland. That coaster could even come up to around the gate and the arrival area. There's also space across from Marco Polo and the rides in Italy. Finally there's some room behind macht tower between that and the land of the dragons area
Edit: very crude mock-up of the areas described. Sorry I am on my phone.

For the next major coaster using a new plot, my order of preference would be Drachen plot > "GateKeeper" style coaster in the England area > anything else.
So is everything in Festhaus Park a new hamlet?
Besides that I really like this but I don’t think that many flat rides need to be installed. Some restraunts or theming in addition to the coasters (s) would be nice plus maybe a couple flats.
I think the best themed areas in the park are the ones with no rides.
"Main Street" Rhinefeld, San Marco, Banbury to me are the most visually "wow" parts of the park and have 0 rides. I'm perfectly okay with an addition not focused around a ride, but focused on architecture. Greece to me fits this perfectly.

Interesting concept. While it doesn't directly relate to the thread topic, I'll throw in my two or 3 cents.
I agree with @lce in the regards you need to be totally immersed in thematic architecture. Thus, more needs to be added as you transition from Oktoberfest. Shops, etc. along the path, hiding the Verbolten building.
While I understand the desire of another river crossing, but that is one looooooonnnnngggg walk. "A Bridge Too Far".
So everything in festhaus would be a new Hamlet. Madrid is left to interpretation. Either a small Hamlet with just the coaster a few shops, a restaurant and maybe one flat. Or just leave Madrid considered a part of Festa Italia since there's not a ton of room to work with after the new coaster goes in. Festhaus would be more than adequate for a whole new Hamlet. You have all the room on the inside of the train over to verbolten. You also could use some of the land on the outside of the train Loop.
Like I said, just a pipe dream. I agree with most of what you said. They're definitely would need to be some shops and buildings along that path to hide verbolten to make the new Hamlet work the best. And while it would be a very large pedestrian Bridge. I feel if you were to do anything such as a hamlet back in the festhaus area, do they really want two massive dead ends in the park.
@cdchen83 you may consider creating a thread for your ideas in the concepts area. I have a lot of thoughts I'd love to contribute but the Project Madrid thread is not the place for such a discussion.
Completely agree would love more interactions with the paths at BGW. If you have ever been to BGT this is something they do incredibly well. It's too bad that it looks like there won't be any with madrid
Would it be suitable to move this discussion to news rather than rumors, due to it being confirmed?
I think until it is officially announced by the park it is still a rumor. Until then the plans could change and everything is speculation.
And remember, BG had submitted plans for a warehouse behind Trappers, but then withdrew the plans from review. So, it's not a "done deal" until James City County approves the plans.
From working as a township planner even that’s not the maker.
Done deal is when the shovel hits the ground.
Depends on what you mean by constriction. Maybe the clearing would start. Pouring footers? Unlikely. I would put the most likely thing we see at preview day is them starting to create new spaces for the fields they will be losing.
