It shut down on Jan. 2, 2012.

Based on the amount of construction on the site, it seems like it should be longer than just over a year...you know?

Are there pictures of the construction done so far anywhere?

Here is a link to a thread at Orlando United. It is 500 pages long but this will link you up to the last couple of pages. I'd go back 20 pages or so to get a good feeling for the entire area.

I was also heartbroken about this, but I've been told the hanging shark is still in the park, outside Lombard's Seafood Grille. So if you've got a tradition of pictures with the shark (with one arm tucked inside your shirt), you can still do that.

Thanks for the photos link! Does #18 look like ride cars? The building didn't really look ready for that, but what do I know.
