Lebanon lands $175M Bible Park USA
September 23rd, 2008
Developers of the Bible Park USA have announce plans to build the $175 million park in Lebanon.
The park will be built on 113 acres off Cainsville Road and Tater Peeler Road fronting Interstate 40 in Lebanon, according to a press release from the developers, BPU Holdings, LLC.
Construction is expected to begin in 2009, with the park opening in late 2010.
Developers had hoped to building the Bible theme park just outside of Murfreesboro, but zoning for the park was defeated in a close vote by the Rutherford County Commission in May.
The development of the park is being headed by Calif.-based Entertainment Development Group Inc.
The park will represent life as it was in the Holy Land’s early days and visualizations of Bible stories, according to the developers. In addition to attractions for people of all ages and religions, it will include a children’s area and a teen area that will be ideal for church events and field trips.
