kidcoaster 2 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) So I got to visit Cedar Point yesterday for a construction tour of Gatekeeper check out the pics! Welcome to Cedar Point What is that I see? Ah Gatekeeper The skyline is defiantly changing Tilt A Whirl base Raptor train Gatekeeper towering over the construction site of the new enterence. Witches Wheel cars Woodstock Express train Closer look Fear Fair is gone Backside of Club Blood Heading into the park Dinokeeper I think it's broke? Digging in the parking lot Get your fast lane! Our guide Bryan addresses the group Did you know that inside this door was the control room for Space Spiral? (I didn't) The windows for the control room Wiggly Twiggly I have never noticed this crooked tree before My worse enemy... Setting up for the next lift Heading out Wave Swinger parts Whats that? Little closer... Ah... next piece going up! Next we ended up at Battery Park Last shot of Gatekeeper Location of the presentations The last stop of the day was the year-round Ghostly Manor haunt on Rt. 250... Its only $11 which is cheap for a haunt but it did have a few neat tricks (I won't spoill it) but only worth a visit just to do it... Thats all thanks for checking it out!

Voxelmatic Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 The park looks creepy without anyone in it . Gatekeeper looks better than I thought it would against they skyline. Love the pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidcoaster 2 Posted December 2, 2012 Author Share Posted December 2, 2012 Whats going on with the new entrance?! Â They removed the old ticket booths (As seen in my photos) which were in a straight line so they can build new ones which will be extend out in a V formation. Bryan also mentioned a giant awning and several giant video screens. Â Nothing looked to be done on the turnstile building yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CpBluestreakCp Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Wow, GateKeeper is looking great. It fits into the skyline perfectly. Â Great TR and pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArundelHigh Coasters Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Thanks for the Pics!, Cedar Point looks creepy in a good way because it's surrounded by water in the fog with no people- just construction, and empty queue's . The skyline did definitely change. I'm guessing their done with lift. I can't wait to ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster09 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Looks Great! As I have said before Gatekeepers colors are a win for me. Great to see the skyline with Gatekeeper's lift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philrad71 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Thanks for posting...it definitely looks odd in that area without the DT building and Space Spiral! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Well good thing is that they are on schedule and I assume they plan to open it opening day so I am sure you'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Roller77 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Amazing photos, I remember going to Cedar Point for the first time back in 1978, when the Gemini was the tallest coaster at the park!How many coasters will that be now, once Gatekeeper opens, 100?? Heh, just kidding, but Cedar Point always amazes me, it's the #1 coaster park in the country!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
