Poler Coaster

Construction History
In 2008, Cedar Point contacted Intamin to build a 500ft tall "Poler Coaster", which Intamin denied, so the idea was sent off to US Thrill Rides, who were most well known for there SkyCoasters in the 90s. The coaster started construction in mid 2008, in a plot of land that used to be occupied by the Cedar Point Sandcastle Suites hotel, the coaster was completed by February 2009, and opened on May 11, 2009, a few days after the park opened.

The Complex It Surrounds
The coaster surrounds the Cedar Point Skyscraper Suites hotel, a 32 storey tall hotel.

Trivia

 * The Coaster only goes 50 MPH.
 * You can see Canada from the coaster.
 * The coaster can be viewed from outside Sandusky and the peninsula.
 * The coaster originally was going to be 525ft tall, but it was decided to make it 500ft tall, realizing that it would drive away interest from the model due to the coaster being too high to beat.
