New H2O Park in South Florida ...

[WDW1974]

This would be a very good thing if it happens.

$110 million water park on unused former Yankees/Orioles spring training site with no tax money, so that South Floridians don't have to drive to WDW or SW to get water park action. I still am not holding my breath.

Wow. That would be pretty cool if it was done well.

Schlitterbahn is a fantastic name and proven brand. Being in Fort Lauderdale, a spring break town makes it kinda iffy. Personally, I don't see it working.


Jimmy Thick- Drunk spring breakers passing out in the lazy river...

When was the last time you were in FL? It's hardly a spring break town. I think this would be a nice addition to the area.

Back when it was a spring break town.

Jimmy Thick- Ouch, I feel old...

That would be back when MTV played music videos.

All the kids have moved on to other countries where it's legal for anyone over 14 to drink until they pass out and wake up in the slave trade.

HA... Pass out while "drinking around the world". Wake up as a CM on Small World.

I'll vouch for Schlitterbahn. They invented the uphill water coaster. No, that wasn't Disney's brain child. We're annual pass holders for their Galveston Island park. Its not heavily themed like Disney but still a very good time. Hopefully they'll stick to their usual: no charge to park and you're welcome to bring ice chests / lunch. Definitely incentive for my family to spend an extra day pre- or post- cruise next time we sail from Port Everglades.

This would be a very welcome addition in South Florida as our closest water park right now is Rapids slightly further north from where they are proposing this...and if it's the Schlitterbahn name even better

Are you serious? I live in Fort Lauderdale and it is still a spring break town... Try to find a good spot in front of Elbo Room, its a madhouse.

Elbo room really? That trash meat market is hardly a representation of Fort Lauderdale.

So do you live here? And its a local favorite spot. Sorry you think its trash, but I thoroughly enjoy it and the whole area of the beach that surrounds it. As well as a few other thousands of young people such as myself. Guess we have bad taste!
