    Lot of good things here, I would definitely watch your scale though. Some of the roofs and doorways on the path are very short and it's sort of screwing with the scale of things. Definitely try to keep those things relatively consistent within a park. Probably best to stick to 5-6 units for those archways and roofs over path too.
  • Description

    Early screenshot, many changes were made shortly after this. The building in the upper right was completely removed and replaced with an original creation, the fun house expanded, a Corral style restaurant on the main midway and many other small tweaks. The Restaurant still remains a Star Point design but once my laptop is fixed I have an original design I sketched out to replace it with. It will be 50-60s theme.

    I'm going for a "patchwork" look with my park, as in I want it to look like there has been many additions and changes as the years have passed. Some years had larger budgets than others etc. Like how Cedar Point is a mishmash of different styles of architecture and nothing really is consistent there. It being inconsistent in design, to me seems more realistic and gives a park more character, which my goal is to have as much character as possible.

    The idea with this area is that this is the original entrance to the park and later was changed to be the entrance to the picnic pavilions and the new entrance and midway was constructed in the 50s-60s in a massive expansion to compete with the newly opened Disneyland. The Side friction roller coaster is the parks oldest ride and it's simply named "Roller Coaster".

    Please feel free to make any suggestions, no feelings will be hurt :)
