The Roller Coaster at New York-New York Description
Where can you experience towering drops, multiple loops and stunning views of the Strip?
Located
on the popular intersection of Tropicana Ave. and Las Vegas Blvd., The
Roller Coaster at New York-New York is hard to miss. Set in a perfect
postcard shot, its surroundings include a replica of the New York
harbor, a 150-foot model of the Statue of Liberty as well as several of
Manhattan's popular buildings. And to make things even more fun, the
roller coaster trains are designed like New York taxicabs.
The
ride begins with a steep hill, building great suspense and anticipation.
Enjoy the aerial view of the south end of the Strip while you can,
because before you know it, you're plummeting down a 144-foot drop. The
intensity continues with loops, corkscrews and hills, speeding up to 67
miles per hour.
This isn't your average upside-down roller
coaster. The loops on this ride are insane -- you'll twist and turn in
ways you never imagined. The combinations of corkscrews, hills and the
exhilarating, 180-degree heartline spiral will keep you gripping your
harnesses.
After the ride, you'll feel surprisingly energized. Don't forget to stop and see your photo, which is available for sale.
Formerly
called The Manhattan Express, The Roller Coaster made its debut on the
Strip in January 1997. More than one million visitors experience the
ride each year.
