sylphrena Posted April 13 Report Share Posted April 13 I haven’t seen anything recently about this in discussion so I’ll start: Evermore Park just formally announced its closing, and Dragonsteel owns all the vacant properties surrounding it. The owner of the park property said that it will be redeveloped, keeping and enhancing the original buildings. (Timestamp 12:12) I haven’t been keeping up with this project, but is it pretty well-understood that this will be the home of the ‘Dragonsteel Village’ (or whatever they end up calling it?) and that the existing park might be integrated into this plan? Apologies if this is already known in the community- I’m just trying to find out more and I’m not seeing a whole lot about it! Thx! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's possible that you're not seeing a whole lot about it because there isn't a ton of information out about it. I knew Dragonsteel Park was going to exist, somewhere near Evermore, but beyond that I hadn't heard anything--much less about Evermore closing (and I live super close to it!). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sylphrena Posted April 14 Author Report Share Posted April 14 Ookla- Yeah, I’m not familiar with the area but it looks like the property is immediately adjacent to Evermore. I remember hearing about the plans for Evermore years ago, but not much about it since except for some of the struggles they had. I don’t think they had much publicity from the start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AonEne he/him in an enby way Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 It's a theory floating around, but hard to say for sure if this is what Dragonsteel's doing - running a theme park is pretty different from their current wheelhouse but maybe?? I definitely think the land around there is where they're building their events center. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Child of Hodor Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 Ever since Disney came out with Galaxy's Edge and the starcruise hotel (now defunct) I thought about what Sanderson world I would want a park to immerse me in. The problem is almost all his worlds are nightmares to live in. Perpetual storms, constant ash fall, a sun that burns you to death in seconds, or they are just Earthlike. Windrunner ride that is indoor skydiving or one of those rides that sling shot you around. They could simulate a high storm experience by having people go through a wind tunnel with buckets of what being thrown at them Bridge crew simulator. Where one team carries a bridge and another team shoots tennis balls at them like in American Gladiators.

If Dragonsteel does get involved it sounds like it would be in partnership with the people that currently own the park so they will at least be partnered with people who know how to run a park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
