Description
Based on the French Quarter in the city of New Orleans, Louisiana, Orleans Place opened as one of the six themed areas of Marriott's Great America on May 29, 1976. On opening day, Orleans Place had four different rides: Rue Le Dodge, Traffique Jam, Cajun Cliffhanger, and the Gulf Coaster. It also had it's own entertainment venue, the Theatre Royale. Midway through the 1976 season, the Gulf Coaster caught fire, forcing it to close. The kiddie coaster had been plagued with issues from the start, and was removed in the 1976/1977 off-season. It was replaced with the Southern Cross Skyride.
In 1988, Shockwave opened, a "megalooper" steel roller coaster manufactured by Arrow Dynamics. The entrance for the queue replaced the station site for the Southern Cross after it was removed. During the 1991 season, Condor opened after previously being located at Six Flags Over Mid-America in 1988. It is a scrambler-type ride manufactured by Huss, where guests board small blue "condors" that take off into the sky.
Located to the left of the Carousel Plaza just beyond the entrance, Orleans Place is often the first or last themed area that guests experience at the park, leaving a lasting memorable impression on visitors who walk through its path. -

So freaking good.... your realism style is truly amazing! I wish Great America still looked this clean lol
OMG It is SOOO pretty
I think this is my most anticipated release!
Yes, yes, yes. When we were posting about the fiesta, you always have those players in the back of your mind, if they show stuff, you'll get excited. Didn't disappoint Hydro.
I loved this, it is beautiful, very good details
an insane level of detail.what i celebrate the most? It all fits in the scaling. in most cso projects the buildings are always exorbitantly large to the visitors, here everything fits. Insane work and cool that it is now also peepable.
Lovely detail and great color choices imo
