Now, it isn't going to be anything like WDW for sure, but it looks amazing! And it will be so close to us!
"The plans for the much anticipated Earth Quest Adventures, slated to be constructed in East Montgomery County , are closer to reality with the fast-approaching ground breaking scheduled for the fall.
East Montgomery County Improvement District President and CEO Frank McCrady discussed the plans for the dinosaur-themed park and museum with the Kingwood Realtor Advisory Board Feb. 12.
We have had board meetings and developer meetings; in two weeks the EMCID board will be issuing bonds on the project, McCrady said. The Houston market is ready, willing and able to accept a thematic theme park and destination place to go in regards to any type of recreational activity.
The Earth Quest Adventures project will be located north of Kingwood, at Roman Forest Boulevard and U.S. Highway 59.
The design process for some of the rides and areas of the park are still in the design process but for the most part, the schematics for Earth Quest are complete.
The project is moving forward and we are expected to break ground on Earth Quest either the end of this fiscal year or the first quarter of 2010, McCrady said.
The park is scheduled to open for the public in 2011 or 2012.
The dinosaur theme park will be situated toward the rear of the park and will feature several roller coasters that will go in and around the mountains constructed as a part of the theme.
There will be a temperate side of the mountain which will simulate a rain-forest like atmosphere, another side will showcase volcano-like activity and yet another side will feature a snowy climate.
There are different components for each side and a centerpiece connecting all the different parts, which is like the center of the park, McCrady said.
The actual park itself is around 200 acres and several hotels are already slated to be built around the park including a hotel featuring rooms situated in the tree tops that offer a view of the park.
Additionally, McCrady discussed the development of Valley Ranch where there is current retail development that will further enhance the theme of the community, a lifestyle center.
The retail centers in Valley Ranch will feature an outdoor shopping experience and offer shoppers outdoor places where they can relax and interact with friends and fellow shoppers.
Kyle Bauer, owner of QLS Family Fitness Health Complex, also addressed the luncheon, explaining the recent additions and expansion of their facility and the centers dedication to the community."
