Locations that could use an amusement park
Southeastern Arizona? I don't know do they have any parks in Arizona? It would be perfect because it could be open all year and they could make it really beautiful down there.

Jack, who can't wait for Opening Day 2001...
They have Castles and Coaster in Phenix SFGA2001 it has one double looping coaster a kidde and some small rides and a minature golf
I can't belive no one said SAN DEIGO yeah they have Sea World, Belmont in abotu 30 min away but they have like 3 rides. I can't belvie not San Deigo! The weather is the best in the world probibly. Why Not! Sea World needs that 110 million dollars from Six Flags and they need to build some rides!

I think that the Rockie mountians would be a good place. It doesn't have any themeparks nearby. And it would be cool having a terrain coaster there.

Rocky Mountain area, and the Northwest are in the greatest need. I also think they have the best terrain, image a terrain coaster in the Rockies? a coaster with a tunnel through a giant redwood? sounds awesome to me.

I would build a themepark right in The Bronx so that people from NYC didn't have to travel so far to Great Adventure
I agree with geicu, the Rocky Mountians should have a few themeparks. I would also like to see a coaster or themepark in a thick jungle or rainforest. Maybe just have a park like Disney or Six Flags make a manmade jungle and put coasters in there, that would cost a lot so it would most likely be Disney. Also a coaster in Hawaii would be nice. I hate to say it (becuase I live in Maryland), but I think that California deserves a few more themeparks. And I think that the Washington area would be prime location for a few themeparks (however they already have a Six Flags so I'm not sure what other brands that are that build from scratch) because of the Nation's capitol.
But I think that it is imperitive the U. S. finds other locations to prevent the foreign countries from productivity and prevented them from being more productive then us (the U.S.).

I wish we had a park night near Boston. SFNE is a four hour drive for Bostonians, Lake Compounce is five. Our closest park is Canobie Lake at two and a half hours. Something right in the surrounding suburbs would be fantastic.

The Rockies have Santa's Workshop. It isn't far from Pike's Peak and you won't find "higher" rides anyplace else!
Ohio doesn't need any more parks. The ones they have are spread out nicely over the state. If a new one was built it would need a lot of capital to bring it up to some kind of par with the others. Who would go to a small park in Amish country Ohio when for a few more hours drive you could be at one of several great parks (CP, SFWOA, PKI or KW). Maybe a complete "kiddie" park with a great woodie could compete because it would be cheap.
The NW desparately needs a major amusement park. I agree with Jeff, halfway between Seattle and Portland would be a great location. Seattle does have a small park with a corkscrew and Portland has a even smaller park with a Looping Star (I think) and there is also two small parks in Salem Oregon with a total of 2 or 3 small coasters. The only problem with the NW is the weather. While the summers are dry, they can be short and I don't see a company paying major dollars for big coasters that won't be open enough during the year to reap a profit.

South Florida, I'll also agree.
You may say, well, we've got the parks in Orlando.
But it takes 3.5 hours to drive from Ft. Lauderdale to Orlando, and that's doing 75mph.
It takes 4.5 hours to drive to BGT.
I recently drove up to IOA for a day (morning up, night back) and it was tuff. A hotel stay is a must.
Yes, we just got the DBH, but what we need is a Six Flags park in West Palm Beach. They have the land and it would be in between Miami and Orlando. But it looks like they're thinking Orlando with the rumors we've been hearing.

Decisions determine destiny; Destiny determines decisions.
There should be a park in every city in America!! I think Las Vegas needs a large park. Once i get rich i plan on building a park in Vegas, it has plenty of tourists there already, and most of them have some money! And there needs to be more for people under 21 to do while their friends and family gamble.

I agree with robvia,the West Palm Beach area is good spot. Althought I dont really see it being that big of tourist area down here. Unlike Orlando and even Miami. I think we get more of an older generation of tourist, those who want to relax on the beach or play golf.
Hmm.....Egypt, India, Hungary, China, Thailand, Venezuela, Peru, Ireland, the South Island of New Zealand, Java, Greece, maybe Anchorage or Morrocco.....basically almost any place outside of the US in a financially stable area could use one.

One place you guys have forgotten completely:
Central Kentucky. Much of the business from Central Ky goes to PKI, no SFKK as you would think. Even the GP doesn't like SFKK that much. I think that a great place would be between Lexington (which really is a pretty big town) and Richmond. Also, if you placed it a little more south you could get quite a lot of feed from Knoxville, maybe.
