Justice League Battle For Metropolis under construction at Six Flags St. Louis, Eureka, Missouri

If you are going to build first there needs to be a little destruction as the entire facade and station are now gone.  In this place will eventually be a large "Hall of Justice" which is the Justice League's headquarters.

As the front of the building is currently getting ripped up and the ground full of drilled holes in preparation for the Hall of Justice we headed around to the side of the building over across from The Log Flume for easier access.

I'm not quite used to seeing a dumpster in the middle of the midway but there have been many of these filled and carted away as everything in the building from the air conditioning system in the ceiling (it has been moved to the roof for clearance) all the way down to the old concrete troughs for the boats had to go.

The easiest way to get in and gut a building is to just punch a big hole in the wall so you can drive in and out with whatever machinery you need to do the job.

Once inside it is pretty obvious that there are not going to be a lot of huge exciting things to show right now during this phase of construction ride wise.  Park President Dave Roemer is a coaster and amusement park enthusiast like us and he really has fun geeking out and showing off his new ride so there was no way we would pass up his invitation to come on down and take a look around.
