ChannelTwoNews Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Saw a profile of this idea in Texas Monthly. The person heading this is working on commissioning a study for development to be funded through a kickstarter page. They have surpassed their goal of $71k and are now at almost $82k. https://www.texasmonthly.com/arts-entertainment/texasland-theme-park-houston/ “I realized that Texas broadly, and Houston specifically, has all the metrics that my team look[ed] for: a massive and burgeoning population, a business-friendly environment, and, from the content side of things, a unique identity.” Houston hasn’t had a theme park since Astroworld closed in 2005, a decision McGee reminded me was made because the park sat on Six Flags’ most valuable land, which the company chose to sell, not because Astroworld wasn’t profitable. Here's a broad overview of what they want to do from their kickstarter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pleak Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Sounds like they are rehashing the original plans of the one that was to be built in New Caney. Grand Texas was going to have a Texas themed amusement park, but all they ended up with was the water park/adventure park + RV park and racetrack.
