Several years ago, the park's owners collaborated with Legacy Entertainment on an exercise to look at ways in which the classic oceanfront theme park might be reimagined. As part of this, a wide variety of architectural styles were developed for the main midway, as seen below. In the end, the selected option was a promenade comprised solely of beloved 'lost' architecture of San Diego buildings and structures which no longer exist.
