Old Chicago: The Beginning Page One
In the beginning there was man...actually a man Robert Brindle who thought up the idea of an enclosed amusement park while visiting Knott's Berry Farm. He wondered what about having a park with no rain ever, just sunny days and Old Chicago was born.
In the artists rendition of the park area there was a mountain that both the Chicago Loop and the log flume go through that never made it to the final cut.
Here's the finished product...Old Chicago.
