This is farenheit97 reporting a new park being constructed by GigaSteel, and Here is my interview with their PR person Mr. Maverickfan:
Me: Mr. Maverickfan I rumors say park will be similar to Geauga Lake, can you comment on that?
Maverickfan: Yes, I can the answer is yes it will be like it in the fact the park and waterpark will be on a lake.
Me: I also hear that your company GigaSteel will also be designing a park with deathfearsnone, is that true?
Maverickfan: Yes it is, although there is no info out on the park it is in the design process but I can say this it is called Fusion Lake.
Me: From the tour you gave me today around the construction site it looks like you have track from B&M is there anything you can tell me about that ride.
Maverickfan: I'm very sorry but I cannot tell you anything about that ride at the current time.
Me: Thank you for your time we hope to talk to you again.
Maverickfan: Your welcome.
And here are some of the pics from my on tour site:

I'm back after visiting the soon to be park once again and I have new news, so lets start out:
First they have a new PR manager deathfearsnone.
An announcement for their new B&M coaster is coming.
and Lastly I have just earned a VIP pass for the park.So lets talk about each thing.
Deathfearsnone is our PR manager thats pretty self-explanitory.
Next the announcement for Riptide (oops) their new coaster is coming soon.
And Lastly I have a pass so now I can interview whomever I want whenever I want and can take pics of anything and go anywhere I want.
Now Lets get to the Photos

Looks cool, but sort of bare at the moment, but I'm guessing that will change.

I seem to be alone here, but I really don't care for the "in construction" shots. I rather see completed areas, even if there is little theming. Trucks with pieces on it and scattered track parts do nothing for me.
The stuk themeing suggests a modern/futuristic look. Is that true?

^Your not alone, I'm not a big fan of them either. At least there is a ride and a layout for a tram ride, which is good.

His is fine, he has some other things as well. I was just saying I don't like it when there is just one truck and some sand-like terrain.

It is bare but that is going to change, also I hate it too when people post a picture of sand and a truck, say new park, then like 5 days later its on hold or canceled.

Yes it is going to have a modern look as the entrance and the rest of the park is a suprise for now.
I like the isometric weivs you`ve used!
I believe you meant to say views and yeah I love using isometric view it brings back memories.
BTW I would like to clarify the reason why there is going to be so many construction pics, that is because this will be a fast moving, daily updated project that might not end.
Another update in an 2 hours.

It may be an extra mile of the realistic aspects of construction, but thats not what makes a park beautiful. I rather have that extra mile go into something else, which might get more constructive comments for it.
I suggest using advanced or freelook for construction purposes... I hated isometric for building things.
Either way, its your park; go with how you want it.

^Transfer track

^The train shed
Well here's my speech on whats going on, currently they are recieving pieces for 2 coasters, the first is an intamin implulse coaster that will launch out on the lake and the next ride is a corkscrew coaster going over the midway. The midway is also taking shape. Riptide like I said is almost done, just some support work, a station, and trees and then a pov will be shot.
So thats whats going on.
