I vote for other even though that wasn't an option. Chat Icon

I don't think they should leave the land alone, but I'm not a fan of an idoor ski resort and I definitely do NOT want another raceway on LI. Chat Icon

Raceway. And as the wife of a car nut, he wants a road course on LI badly, so I have to vote for that!!

Riverhead already has a raceway... though I've never been to it - it causes all sorts of traffic and is extremely LOUD when you're driving by during race time... I live on the North fork and would vote for "other" also...

I would like for Long Island to have a quarter mile drag track again. It was fun to race there or even just be a spectator. So I will vote raceway because I believe there were talks of the drag track if they did a racetrack out there.

I think the ski resort actually sounds pretty cool. I'm sure it will be outrageously expensive, though. But I guess cheaper than a weekend someplace since you can just go for the day!

Re: which one would be your choice....(w/poll)*UPDATE*

Here is a recent news article....


By COREY KILGANNON
Published: September 21, 2007
The Town Board has selected a developer to build a huge resort and theme park that will include a 350-foot indoor ski mountain, which would be the highest structure on Long Island, Supervisor Philip Cardinale said yesterday. Rejecting a competing proposal to build an auto racing complex, the board voted Wednesday to sell 755 acres of vacant land in Calverton, one of the last large parcels on Long Island, to be developed by Riverhead Resorts. The project, which is scheduled to break ground in 2009, could cost up to $1.5 billion and include a sports complex, a huge artificial lake, a snowboarding center, a spa, a wilderness resort and camping area, a conference center and several thousand hotel rooms and time-share units.

Awesome- it sounds like it will be an indoor terrain park. Way better than 1000 feet of straight open face trail.
The water park makes no sense- Splish Splash is like 1 mile away.
