Florida's theme and amusement parks flourish and serve as attractions for millions of out-of-state tourists: Walt Disney World, SeaWorld, Universal Studios, and many more. This 16"x11" presentation plan represents the proposal for one such theme park that failed to gain traction, Earth Station One (ES-1), a concept from the firm of Helman Hurley Charvat Peacock Architects, Inc.
<br></br>
The ES-1 idea was conceived by Winston W. "Bud" Gardner as way of exploring the potential development of a 345 acre site on Florida's Space Coast near Cape Canaveral. ES-1 was to be a tourist attraction "emphasizing the unique co-existence of nature and technology in the area."
<br></br>
As conceived in the presentation plan, the development would support a mixed use attraction with retail, food, beverage, and lodging.

"Earth Station One is a fictional interplanetary gateway between worlds that allows visitors to be teleported to far away planets and civilizations. The concept focuses on the emphasis and understanding of ecological conditions of the earth through the entertaining exposure to other worlds."
