-boodie boarding
-climbing
-canyoneering
-zip lines

-resort hotel
-resort villas
-conference center
-spa and wellness center
-aphitheater
-resteraunts
-retail shops

and residential

WOW, does anyone have anymore info on this project??? This is great news for the city of Phoenix. Of course one question I have is, Where are they getting all of this water??? check out the website, www.waveyard.com

Just think of all the things we'd have if all the goofy ideas that come up got turned into brick and mortar: worlds tallest building, water park, light rail....

Hey they were supposed to build that in Surprise. The east side gets all the fun. (At least on paper anyway.)

Are they going to still build it while in an economic downturn?

Better off on the East Side. Places like that attract crime. See Magic Mountain in Santa Clarita.

Waste of resources (money and water). I cant imagine how much water would be needed to complete that and make up for all the daily evaporation. Yikes.

New park called Wet & Wild takes over the old Waterworld. It opens this June of 2009. There are new pictures of it being built & prices are posted.

One of the articles posted on the website, stated:

Quote:
Project organizers say they won't tap Mesa's drinking water supplies to fill the park. Instead, they plan to draw from a well that has elevated levels of arsenic, which makes its water unsuitable for drinking. The Waveyard will build a treatment plant to make the water safe for swimmers.

Arsenic-tainted water. Nice going!!!!!!

So much for this thing attempting to be eco-friendly.

Not likely for now. Lack of $$$ and water problems.
Also Surprise (or anywhere else in the west valley) would be an extremely foolish place to locate such a thing.
