3 Rides To Be Demolished At Six Flags Great Adventure: Report

JACKSON, NJ — Six Flags Great Adventure is planning to demolish a roller coaster and two other rides, according to a report.

Construction permits filed in Jackson Township show that Green Lantern, Twister Top, and the parachute tower are all marked for demolition, as NJ.com reported.

Green Lantern, a standing roller coaster that features a 72-foot inclined loop, was relocated from Kentucky Kingdom and first opened at Great Adventure in 2011.

Photos on social media showed a crane near Green Lantern, and crew members posing for their "final" pictures together.

Rumors have also been circulating among coaster enthusiasts that Kingda Ka will also be shutting down, as NJ.com and the Asbury Park Press reported. This prompted fans from all over the U.S. to flock to the park to experience the thrill one last time, including one who traveled to pay his respects by playing "Amazing Grace" on the bagpipes.

Six Flags has not commented on the closure rumors, and told Patch that they " plan to share information about the ride and additional park news very soon."

Kingda Ka, which opened in 2005, is the tallest steel roller coaster in the world at 456 feet high and also one of the fastest.
