It was really nostalgic for my wife and brother, who both went a lot during the period this street view is from. It's always feels like not much changes until you look back like this and really see just how much advanced in a short period of time. Gotta give them some credit, cedar point is always trying to keep things fresh. Sometimes that's good, and sometimes we lose something in the process.

Frontier Town is going to change a lot because we're losing Snake River Falls in the off season. Disaster Transport was nice because it had a lower ride height requirement of 42 inches so it was good for little kids. also the indoor queue was air conditioned. if you really want to see a different Cedar Point there are people's home videos uploaded here on KZitem. I found one from 1961 and absolutely nothing is the same. this was from before even Blue Streak which was built in 64. they had this weird looking monorail that hung below the track. it was very strange

I'm glad they took swift action to change policy the same day we brought it to their attention, but the more irritating part to me is that it feels like this policy that deals with children was developed by someone who doesn't have children. You joke about the child psychologist thing but it really does feel like there's a disconnect with what the policy developers think about kids and the reality of them. That's the part that seems more irritating to me. A similar thing is how at the beginning of rides, the ride attendants still do all these announcements about keeping your hands and feet inside the ride at all times etc etc, as if these 2-4 year olds even understand for one second what they are saying. I understand the employees have to do it for ALL rides, but It really feels like they need to modify this procedure and make it more kid-friendly for kids rides. I legit heard yesterday an employee use the phrase "if you need assistance" and my immediate thought was "my 3 year old doesn't know what assistance means."

If they want to be fool-proof.. just make the ticket requirement based on whether they are tall enough to ride a certain number of kiddie rides.. thats kinda the gague of value anyways.

When we were kids? You'll need to show the park in the 90s for that. While we got to see Disaster Trasnsport, WildCat, and Antique Cars, we don't see White Water Landing, Demon Drop, Disaster Transport, Pirate Ride, Paddlewheel Excusrions, Mill Race, Jungle Larry, the Imax theater (which was where the Good Time theater is in this), and heck, I even remember being a little kid on the Sky Slide. Also sad to see how souless and corporate the place has become, even if there are a few good changes. Also, WildCat itself was the successor the original Wild Mouse that closed in 1963 and original Wildcat that closed in 1978. And people liked Mean Streak when it first opened, but it quickly got very rough and practically gave you a concussion riding it.

Technically, I was a kid both in the 90s and in the early 2010s, so it still counts 😂 in my opinion, I hazard the use of "corporate" but I definitely understand the vibe you are talking about. Much of the buildings in the park feel "same-y" and just use the same generic modern architecture style that you come to expect nowadays. And that's something I really tried to highlight with this video and tend to focus a lot on in the future. Character, theme and story are going to be huge if SF/CF are going to try and compete with their biggest competitors. And that means doing fun buildings and styling again.

The more I think about the idea, the more I like it. It feels to me like a good way to tribute the park's history as a beach. There still is a beach but it isn't treated like a focal point anymore. I think having a pier would be a cool way to bring focus back to the water.

It seems weird that there isn't just one policy chain-wide. I think the admissions should be based on size, not age. Measure the kid, slap a wrist band on them, charge the correct price, then use the wrist band at the ride. Can't even begin to estimate how many times I've watched them hold up the lines to re-measure the height again and again and again and again.

They could also get creative like parks like gröna lund having things built on top of each other haha. But a 2nd park is definitely needed if they can ever swing it. Its usually too crowded to enjoy unless you dont care about hitting everything. I also wonder if parking could be on mainland ohio and monorail type transit is the primary way to the park when you dont stay on site.

I like the parking garage idea as well as potentially moving most of the parking off site to reclaim most of the lot. I like your corridor idea that leads up to the main gate and the gate keeper but I would keep bus parking as far back as possible and develop that area into a shopping and entertainment center that could function year around. If that’s not an option do to off season business not being enough to support it than a beautiful green space would also be great. Baring the parking garage idea the only parking I would want on the peninsula would be VIP and on site guest parking for hotel breakers and lighthouse point. I know the previous video suggested moving the camp ground off site and while I’m ok with that it would be a last resort move since I like the idea of having a budget friendly option on the peninsula. I would sooner move cedar point shores off site before the campground and cabins. I also like the pier idea extending out from the boardwalk. That entire area could be themed like a classic pier park complete with a Farris wheel and a carnival style experience.
