Moulin Rouge/French Street

Looks like the VIP Center is getting a touchup.

Yeah, they started that a few weeks ago, they were touching it up when i went on Feb 25th, I posted that a pic on the GroupMe chat. Nice that the area is getting attention.

Nice.

It's kinda convenient that Despicable Me is next to French street, as the original was mostly produced in France!

^ ahhhhhhh, great connection! Really clever, although unintentional haha.

I really wish that the VIP center was made to the public though. Such a great location :/

 

[Chris]

Roman Noodle needs to return to this area and move the VIP lounge to another location.  This area is going to be a madhouse more than ever!

They painted over the logo as of today. Other facades are getting ready for touch-ups especially on the south end of the street.

I was talking to someone from upper management close to a month ago. He told me the idea of turning French Street and Baker Street into Suess Land has come up before. What do you guys and girls think about that?

I would rather have SL where the Studio Tour loading area currently sits. It would seem like a crowd nightmare snuggling it between Universal Plaza and the Despicable Me area.

I've mentioned so many times how much I'd love for Seuss to come to the park. The problem is that French Street and Baker Street are so oddly positioned, and they act as the path to the Despicable Me "land." There wouldn't really be room for any attractions/rides.

I've mentioned this idea multiple times before. Transform/replace French Street (along with the French courtyard in the center) into a little Seuss land, leading towards a little Seuss dark ride that could replace Animal Actors and some small surrounding facilities. And the connection between it and Despicable Me would feel even more natural than now, and would completely transform the Upper Lot into a family friendly "Fantasy" section everywhere!

I agree. Besides, I like French and Baker street.

I think they would be better positioned, like Zero said, where the current Tour loading area is. A Suess land could even go in WaterWorld. If they were willing to move that office building elsewhere, they could fit in that scrapped Lorax ride and the Grinch coaster.

Yup I see the current tour loading area and garage becoming something whether its Dr.suess land or something else and seeing the former stage 28 location for studio tour loading which in my option is damn shame..that place should become a dark ride

 

[Allen The Actor]

Either way, I'd like a Seuss Land on the Upper Lot. And then that way pretty much all of the Upper Lot will be fantasy based/family friendly, and the Lower Lot will be more thrill/action based.

With the new Studio Tour entrance, I don't think we'll see the Studio Tour entrance or location moved anytime soon, they would've started that by now.
