The bridge and the railing
surrounding the Koi Pond were originally painted a bright red color,
reflecting the Asian origins of the Koi fish.
With the removal of
the original Garden of Marvels structures and conversion of the area
into a miniature golf course, the bridge was repainted a dark green
color.
After the Garden of Marvels area was razed to build the
Shockwave roller coaster in 1990, the Koi Pond was one of the only
elements to remain, though no longer stocked with koi and without the
zigzag bridge across the center. The area around the Koi Pond was used
as an exit for the ride as well as a viewing area for the roller
coaster.
After the Shockwave was removed in 1992, the Koi Pond
remained through 1996 when the coaster's queue house and the pond were
removed for 1997's new Dare Devil Dive ride. |
