Somehow, I still think this water park is going to under perform in size. I hope I am wrong.
The plot of land is bigger than WnW and around the same sq. footage as Typhoon Lagoon & Aquatica I believe.

Exactly. People are always pulling up bad sources that include the parking lots & back buildings on theme parks & water parks acreage. Typhoon, Blizzard & Aquatica true water park only acreage is apx. the same as Volcano Bay.The plot of land is bigger than WnW and around the same sq. footage as Typhoon Lagoon & Aquatica I believe.
Exactly. The actual acreage of just the guest areas of the water parks range between 25-30 acres...and Volcano Bay is about 30-35 acres, so very close. I expect the park to have at least as many attractions at Aquatica or Blizzard Beach...hopefully more.Exactly.

This is the first picture I have seen that you can see people standing among the columns. Look how deep that is!!!

^ I don't believe it was Woodbury's intentions to have 30' of his volcano hidden from view. I personally read it as being an example of how deep they must dig to support 200' or more likely that this is where all the massive pump systems will be hidden from view using no visual real estate.
They could put a really big red blinking light on it and make it look like it's erupting. Or just make it 199'.Isn't 200 ft. the FAA restriction level, blinking lights and all? So I would doubt it would go over that height.

OK. If there's already going to be a light, they can go on to infinity, or whatever the ground or budget will support.There will be a light on it, but from what I've seen, it's definitely going over 200'.

Next week, it will be the height of the Chrysler Building!
With King Kong hanging from it.Yeah it is and it is not going over 200 feet. Christ, the press release stated 200'! Some of these people jigger it a little to long and become dazed in their fantasy. :look: Next week, it will be the height of the Chrysler Building!

It was one of them which of course I cannot find. I remember reading and typing that Woodbury got his way because the release bragged 200'!
200' is what he wanted and the team was concerned that it might not be funded; that it would be whittled down to 150' or 160'.

So, if you want to tell everyone here that another member of the UC team told you personally that it will be 265', you go for it! I ain't arguing with you about it.
