A failure in society is a failure of society.
They would have money to move the rides to a new location and build a new park with them if they can get outside investers. Phoenix have over 5 million people and if 50% are senior citizens 55 and over there are still 2.5 million people under 55 so if a park with 3-5 full sized coasters 80-150 feet tall and a 300 foot tall drop ride was in phoenix there should be enough support for such a park. The Twin Cities in MN has 2.5 million people which is half the size of Phoenix and has Valleyfair. And the new location rumored for Castle N Caosters in my estimate is 25-40 acres large enough for 3-6 compact full sized coasters and than some if they build rides to interwine with each other. If they could get the money they could do a 4 track in 1 coaster dueling with each other with one an inverted, another floorless, another a standup, and the last one a flyer. If you do a 110-120 footer on each layout I believe it could be built in 3-5 acres having the 4 tracks intertwined each other. This can be done in phases too with one track each to test the GP's response. This way they would need the 30-50 million up front. Now there are also lower cost smalled inverted and flying coasters so one like the one @ SFEG may be inexpensive and Pinfari also have a smaller low cost inverted so Castle and Coasters could look at those.
