It was going to have one of the country’s largest water parks, golf courses, hotels conference centers and shopping,” she said.<br />“But instead it turned into a ghost town when the 2008 housing crisis hit. Five people had ended up in federal prison. And 13 years later the houses just sit here.”<br />Developers wanted the resort to boast a marina, a 390-room hotel, a museum and the world’s second-largest indoor water park.<br />But after people involved in the project were sent to prison — including two who lied to get loans for the development — it was never completed.<br /><br />Mail : vesachannel@gmail.com<br />Find VESA Channel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/VesaChannel
