City of Smithfield Approves Massive Park Expansion

Today, I attended a city planning meeting, where Mark Shapiro outlined the park's expansion plan for next year, albeit general. Mark talked about two new "attractions" which would break the 100ft. mark, which requires a permit, another topic was a permit to construct over a body of water. In the end, the park received all the necessary permits for the coming year. In news for this year, The American Swing received a permit to be removed. But before the meeting, I went to the park.


The park was pretty empty today, considering it was a Wednesday.


Mark said that The American Swing would be airlifted as one-single piece and would be broken apart at a remote location.


Soon, we'll begin seeing a new part of the park come to life!


There's so much space, so little time!


The nice fence and sign are now replaced with a wooden construction fence.


In other news- INSANE is now closed as a precautionary measure, due to an incident with a similar model coaster.


I got this picture from American Scream, it's the new maintenance bays which are now open!


What's this?
