Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.  I’m Fred Fishkin.     While work continues on Project Purple roller coaster…towering over the skyline at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, NJ, the them park is innovating with a new concept…an area called Shoreline Pier at The Boardwalk.  There’s the food..

“So down at Riptide Seafood, we have the fried shrimp and the clam strips and then you get three different Po Boys. A flounder Po Boy, a shrimp Po Boy or the New Orleans beel Po Boy.”

Park Executive Chef Jeremy Hacker.  About the concept, Park President Mike Fehnel says..

“It is a glimpse into the future for Six Flags Great Adventure. When guests visit the Shoreline Pier, they’re going to discover more than just the rides, they’re going to see this cohesive, themed area, where entertainment, food and beverage and all the ambiance comes together.”

At a time when many theme parks have struggled, the innovation is more important than ever.
