The City of Allen is working to bring a new recreation spot to North Texas!
The city is currently courting a new waterpark from Kalahari, often known across as the nation as "the creator of America's largest indoor waterparks."
According to CultureMap Dallas, the new park would be located at the corner of Stacy Rd. and 121, and would include 1.2 million square feet of resort and convention space, including at least 900 guest rooms, an indoor and outdoor waterpark, a convention center, and a family entertainment center.
It would be the second Kalahari location, with the first being located in Round Rock, but there are only three others currently, in Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania; Sandusky, Ohio; and Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin.
Todd Nelson, CEO, owner and founder of Kalahari Resorts, said in a statement, "With its welcoming spirit, family-focused values and vibrant growth, Allen is a community that truly embodies what we stand for.
"We are always exploring opportunities to bring America's Largest Indoor Waterpark Resort experience to more families. While we do not have finalized plans at this time, we are encouraged by the positive discussions with the city and state representatives we've had up to this point."
