Permits were submitted to the FAA last week for a 450-foot crane to be set up between March and July for this coaster.
Kingda Ka used a 500-foot crane to top out at 456 feet, I do not see this coaster brushing past 400.

because it's the kingda ka "replacement" (not really but whatever) and people still haven't moved on from that over a year later.

Rather sharp track piece on site, could be for entrance into top of the spire?

Delivering one track piece at a time? That'll take forever. But I guess they don't seem to be in a hurry. I went to this park for the first time last October. Kinda strange to think that King Da Ka stood there for 20 years before I was able to get there, and then I was there the season after it closed. Just missed it.

Non-coaster update, a reimagining of the park's very ugly Boardwalk area has been announced for this season, preceding the new coaster that is being installed within/adjacent.

Anyone putting two and two together has assumed that something is being picked up from Six Flags America, especially since they recently dismantled their French Quarter Flyers and Ragin Cajun. I think the former seems pretty assured, it's an easy ride to rebuild, ideal for a supporting lineup, and SFGADV is one of the few major US parks without one. On the other hand it'd be a little silly of them to plop down a twenty-year-old spinning mouse next to their shiny giant new 2027 headliner, but dumber things have happened before.
The other day they filed demolition permits for a few of the game stands, these should help open up the path and get rid of dead weight;

Overall yeah this is Phase 2 of Cedar Fair execs' pet project in SFGADV rehabilitation. Step One was purging a ton of attractions, Step Two is this weak-point area cleanup, Step Three will bring it home with the headliner heavily-marketable coaster. And there's loads more happening this offseason and behind the scenes as well.

As for the boardwalk improvements, they hope to have “multiple new rides” ready by late Spring but as of a few days ago weren’t 100% confirmed on what exactly they were receiving. Definitely seems like stuff is indeed being ported over from SFA.

Oh that's good, this is one of the few creds I'm missing from SFA, so it'll be nice to have that not die on me. That said, I'm sick of Reverchons.
Seems like the park will be a sneaky +3 for me whenever I return, with this one continuing Great Adventure's streak of new low-capacity coasters.

Thanks, I hate it.
Well, not hate. But when all you cobble together is a single concept photo, with pixelated blow-up of the other, "new feature rides" (example 1 below); this is quite a low-brow expansion exercise.
