I assume Helios won't open until the park is open since it overlooks the park.

Because you are in Orlando and for some reason they don't like efficient mass transit in Florida.

This is a huge reason why I moved away. If your car breaks down for any reason you are extremely screwed. It's not that hard to have efficient buses and I'm not sure why Orlando is so against the idea.

They would have to triple the size of their fleet (and man-power) to make their current routes more viable. Never mind the cost to actually make good routes.

Also, since Lynx is not centrally funded (it’s funding is shared across multiple counties), that will never get paid for.

And the FDoT has a vested interest in toll roads, since that is how THEY’RE funded, so they actively push back on expanded public transportation.

So essentially the government is lazy and greedy. What else is new.

Elections have consequences and that’s all I’m going to say when it comes to certain topics especially regarding Mass Transit in Florida.

Some fascinating pieces of art on themeparx

Outdated, but very close to what is being constructed.

So Zephyr Market was actually used.
And I don't know about you, but I like the "Give my creation life" more so than "It's alive! It's alive!".

Pretty sure that's a YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN quote.

"It's alive!" is definitely from the classic Universal film.

I would love this land forever even if they did something as simple as a record player in the queue with a record of “Puttin’ on the Ritz” inside.

I love the jokes but I gotta step in and be a mod here as it is the Construction thread. So let’s try to get back to that. Thanks!
