CpBluestreakCp Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) Hey, everyone! I'm here making a new NCSO park called Lakeshore Park set in the Cleveland, Ohio area. *My architecture isn't the best yet still practicing. Any comments and criticism is welcome about what is good and bad, thanks for reading! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After Geauga Lake closed in 2007, a multi-millionaire of the area decided the area needed a new park. Around the end of 2008, planning started for the park and in 2009 ground was broke in order to start the construction. Now, in 2013, the park has just opened with only a few rides and a roller coaster. So far, the only area is the "old style" 20th century midway. In the coming years, more areas are planned. SCR1.bmp This is Woodland Racer's station. It is an 101ft Gravity Group coaster. SCR2.bmp Here is the classic ferris wheel at the end of the midway surrounded by the lake. SCR3.bmp Here are the trams that transport guests from one end of the midway to the other. SCR10NEW.bmp This is the main entrance to Lakeshore. Inside the building is information and guests services after going through the main gates. SCR5.bmp The classic merry-go-round surrounded by the forests that are yet to be used for expansion. SCR6.bmp The 101foot climb of Woodland Racer. SCR7.bmp The turn around of the coaster that speeds over the lake. SCR8.bmp Here is the final helix and airtime hill of the coaster over a small, man-made pond. SCR9.bmp Finally, here is a overview of Lakeshore. As you can see, there is still plenty of land available for expansion and new areas. Edited April 18, 2013 by CpBluestreakCp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brockboehm Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Dude this is great! I love this. The park overall has a really nice atmosphere. Woodland Racer is awesome, I love the name. It's such a beautiful coaster. Great idea for the tram, too. Keep up the great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historyfreak92 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 If this was real, I would go here, nice park bud! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollinwp Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Great coaster! Absolutely loved it, only thing I would suggest is to raise the final helix around 5ft over the water, it looks like its touching the surface of the water and it might look better just a little raised. But great work so far, can't wait to see more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLKDMNDS Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Good work bro! I'm loving this.. Keep it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CpBluestreakCp Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 brockboehm- Thanks a lot, it took me a while to figure out a name. historyfreak92- Thanks, glad you would visit! hollinwp- I'll see what I can do about that, but thanks as well. BLKDMNDS- Thanks! *As well the name of the park had changed to Lakeshore park instead, so some of the picture were outdated in the last post. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, everyone! Lakeshore park has been on the move and adding a few more attractions for guest enjoyment. SCR11.bmp Here we added a new Scrambler to our midway. SCR12.bmp Near the back of the park, Lakeshore Views had been built in order to provide a terrific look at the park from above. SCR13.bmp Two new eateries have been added including this one that let's you eat right on the lake. SCR16.bmp And then across from Lakeshore Views there is another eatery with a gift shop inside as well. SCR17.bmp Across the lake is Woodland Racer about to embark on its journey through its twisted course. Will it have another coaster to share the park with soon? SCR15.bmp Well, it looks like there is a large space with some development and construction going on over here. Could it be a roller coaster? And what kind? SCR18.bmp We'll just have to wait and see. Here is a park overview to end it. Thanks for reading and stay tuned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brockboehm Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Ah that is so cool. Love how the park is progressing. I especially really like the new Scrambler. I like the roofing you did with the yellow structure pieces. As for the new coaster, I'm hoping for one with inversions! Maybe a Corkscrew coaster would balance the park nicely? That's my guess. Or a Junior coaster of some sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historyfreak92 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I'm thinking a Zierer, or Vekoma Junior Coaster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLKDMNDS Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Looking good! As far as the coaster.. I'm in an agreement with historyfreak92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CpBluestreakCp Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 Hello, everyone! Completion has been completed on the new roller coaster installed at Lakeshore Park. The coaster is a used Arrow looper from a distant park, we got quite a bargain on it, just over 2million. It would off been sold for scrap, anyway. SCR19.bmp Here is the coaster with the name classicly called Corkscrew. SCR20.bmp Closer view of its other half as it speeds over guests. SCR23.bmp As it accelerates into the helix then into the final brakes. SCR21.bmp Just beginning its twisted ride in this picture. SCR18.bmp Quite a transformation from this to.. SCR25.bmp to this! Looks like a great addition with Woodland Racer, hopefully we'll see them both thrilling riders for years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historyfreak92 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I like that Arrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brockboehm Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Ah sorry I didn't comment sooner dude! I didn't even know there had been an update! Haha I was right! A Corkscrew! Looks great! Definitely something the park needed, a coaster with inversions to balance the collection. Looks really nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CpBluestreakCp Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Thanks all for the kind words. Lakeshore Park has a big surprise for you all. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello again, everyone. Lakeshore Park has been busy working on their newest area called "Hidden Adventures". This expansion, for now, features a kid's coaster (with some hidden elements), a rapids ride, and a new eatery! Though, in the future, the Hidden Adventures area will become home to some new rides. On with the pictures. SCR26.bmp Here is the entrance area to the new land, Hidden Adventures. This expansion is a jungle themed area that connects off from the main strip of park. SCR27.bmp As you enter, you are immediately greeted by a large man made mountain which houses the newest kid's coaster, Expedition. SCR30.bmp Here is the finale of Expedition which speeds right passed the mountain after coming from underground. SCR31.bmp The other side of the large mountain and station of Expedition. SCR28.bmp This would be the rapids ride called Amazon Rapids. This ride climbs the face of another mountain (which guests walk under) and drops you down into a furious ride. SCR32.bmp This is the opposite side of Amazon Rapids. Here you are pushed out into a small lake and end your journey with yet another climb and drop. SCR29.bmp The final part of Hidden Adventures is this large building next to Expedition which houses the new eatery and shop. Not only can you come in here to eat and shop, but there is a nice patio on the opposite side of the building that shows great views of Expedition and its riders. SCR33.bmp In this picture, you can see the massive amounts of space Hidden Adventures has for further expansion. Expect great things from this area... SCR34.bmp Finally, I'll leave you with this aerial shot of the park. Lakeshore Park is slowly growing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CpBluestreakCp Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 Hello again, everyone! Lakeshore Park has another big surprise for you with the addition of yet another new roller coaster. This one being named, Carnivore. It is a B&M invert in the Hidden Adventures area. SCR35.bmp Woodland Racer was once the only roller coaster in the park, but it is still the favorite. Might Carnivore overtake it? SCR37.bmp Standing tall among the Hidden Adventures area, Carnivore takes you on a wicked journey. SCR36.bmp After leaving the cave the station is located, you ascend up the lift and are dropped going first through a vertical loop then a zero-g roll high above the path. SCR38.bmp Then you soar into a cobra roll at heights way above the park. SCR39.bmp You take a moment to pause in the MCBR but are then dropped into a dizzying array of helices and corkscrews. The final element is an airtime hill into the brakes. SCR40.bmp As well, added to Hidden Adventures was a little cafe on the banks of the small lake. Guests can eat and watch either Amazon Rapids or Carnivore fly over the park. SCR41.bmp A new entrance closer to the front of the park was built for Hidden Adventures next to Scrambler. SCR33.bmp As you can see, the Hidden Adventures area going from this to... SCR42.bmp this was quite a transformation! SCR43.bmp I'll leave you all with another aerial view of the park. Expect more expansion to be happening near Woodland Racer in the coming updates. Thanks for looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brockboehm Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 That's beautiful! Love it! Great color scheme. Looking fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CpBluestreakCp Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 Hello, everyone! Sorry for the long delay. I've been busy and just had time to get back to updating this park now. Enjoy! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- During its long vacation away from TPR, Lakeshore Park has grown tremendously! But, in this update, we'll only be showing you the newly added Wicked Frontier area. More on the rest of the park soon! SCR44.bmp Here is the newly added entrance to Wicked Frontier. It is located off of the main street area between Woodland Racer and the Carousel. SCR45.bmp This buildings houses a large food court with many different choices of places to eat! (And I know the sign says Merry-go-round on it, haven't yet had the time to change it) SCR46.bmp This is the large log flume ride right across from the food court. It is called Frontier Falls and features 2 drops ranging from 60 feet to around 30. SCR47.bmp On the adjacent side of Frontier Falls, we have a little boat ride which you are able to steer yourself as Woodland Racer flies by above. SCR48.bmp Across from the boat ride, Timber Mouse quickly navigates its way through the thick woods of the area. SCR49.bmp And, finally, we'll end this update with a picture of a little gift shop at the end of the trail....if you look over to your right, you may see a hint as to what is to come in the next update. Anyone wanna take any guesses at what the coaster is? Or the theme of the area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
