Aquarium Information

Link Other Link

A commenter asked us for information about the proposed aquarium so I decided I'd make a whole post for this. I'll do a fake interview with my self:

Questioner: "Where is the money for this super awesome fish tank gonna come from?"

What Can't Xanadu?: "No need to worry tax paying citizens, no money is coming from the state. The primary financial supporter is Colony Capital, the company sponsoring most of the project."

Q: "Who will be running this Aquarium?"

WCX: "That's a good question, and quite frankly, I can't answer it. All that we know is that it will be run by an 'undisclosed private company that runs aquariums.' Adventure Aquarium in Camden is run by Herschend Family Entertainment and was previously run by Steiner + Associates."

Q: "If we don't know who is running the Aquarium, how do we know if it will be a good job?"

WCX: "Carl Goldberg, the sports authority's chair, said that the undisclosed company currently in negotiations is "really world renowned for ecological sensitivity and very well structured aquarium experiences." With no other information to go on, I will trust Chairman Goldberg. I also find it extremely hard to believe that a company would put the time and money into this effort for a shoddy job."

Q: "Why is the Aquarium operator undisclosed?"

WCX: "I don't know the true reason, but my best guess would be that because the bill has not passed making the Aquarium a legal possibility, their are other legal issues involved in naming the company. They might just want to play it safe."

Q: "Who is building the Aquarium?"

WCX: "Cumming Corp, the same company building the rest of Xanadu. It's possible that they are running it as well, but I don't know."

WCX: "Thats all the time we have for now. Thanks for all the questions. See you all next time!"
