Opening date announced for US$220m Grand Texas Theme Park
Plans to bring a massive entertainment complex and theme park in Houston, Texas, US have taken a step forward after an opening date of Q1 2015 was set.
The new complex will consist of Grand Texas Theme Park, Big Rivers Waterpark, Downtown Texas, Wakeboard Lake, Baseball Stadium, hotels and a concert and event center.
The US$118m (£76m, €88.8m) Grand Texas Theme Park will include not only a theme park, but also a water park, amphitheatre and paintball arena. Also included will be an equestrian centre and a retail centre.
Big Rivers Water Park should open for Q1 2015 and Grand Texas Theme Park in Q3 2015 with hotels and other accommodations coming online sometime between those two dates.
Park representatives have said that they are looking into incorporating the design into the natural setting. The Montgomery tract, located in New Cairny is the site slated for construction.
Additional developments including restaurants would add a further US$95m bringing estimates up to around US$220m. The project is slated to create more than 2,000 long term jobs and more than 1,600 jobs during the construction phases. The Grand Texas Park is designed by US-based firm BDR Design Group, which most recently worked with entertainment franchise Rovio on Angry Birds Land Sarkanniemi in Finland.
