Legend City 2020
Approach the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian community regarding the land that borders McKellips Road south and Hayden Road east . . . currently that piece of land is vacant and farmland. How about Legend City 2020? Reintroduce Valley residents to our original theme park built with 21st Century technology for ride safety and summer cooling. Right next to the Tempe Marketplace. Could be very large tourist destination shared with Scottsdale and Tempe . . . new hotel development on the vacant MDowell Motor Mile. New sales tax revenues from the park and new surrounding businesses . . . would create LOTS of jobs in the Valley. Good for schools . . . perhaps we could get a loan from gaming revenue to put this on the front burner and pay it off quickly with monies from advertising. Better than Skysong or a Coyotes arena! http://www.legend-city.com/

I suppose some of that land could be a Maricopa County island of some sort.

Paul, this is a wonderful idea. Think of all the jobs this would provide as well as tourism for the surrounding communities!! This makes so much sense in this economy! And think of all the kids and adults who didn't get to experience the original Legend City!!!
Way to go! You have my vote!! :D

This is an awsome idea and a great business opportunity for someone. I support this 100% and would love to see it happen. Arizona needs a theme park again it has been way too long.

It wouldn't be too tough to put togeather some thing like the Adventure Dome at Circus Circus and add some outside water rides that would work in the summer for a true year round park. With freeway access it would work even better than the old park did.

I think this is a great idea but not one that I would like to see our tax dollars support. If it is a viable pursuit, and I believe it would be profitable, let the private side do it.

Fun, but no.
