Legoland Florida

Some details have come out on Legoland Florida, including some artists' renderings. The park will open in October 2011. Adult tickets will be $65 for a day, or $99 for an annual pass. Areas of the park will include The Beginning, Fun Town, Miniland USA, Castle Hill, Land of Adventure, XTreme, LEGO City, Imagination Zone, Pirate’s Cove and DUPLO Village. There's also a sneak preview video, but that seems to be all footage from Legoland California with a few of the artists' renderings thrown in.
