Totally forgot to mention numerous front end loaders were working on the lot inbetween RP and CB this afternoon.
First and foremost, I'm puzzled as to where a water park could fit on Universal's property. There two spaces left: The space just south of the Cabana Bay Hotel, and the plot of land just east of Cabana Bay, on the other side of the I-4 Offramp. If you look at a google map, Neither of these areas are large enough to hold a full-sized water park. Keep in mind, water slides take up a LOT of room! You could fit about 1 or 2 of IOA's islands in the existing spaces
I've done the measurements many a time on Google Earth. Aquatica's, Typhoon Lagoon's, and Blizzard Beach's perimeters could fit into the plot between CBBR and RP with a different layout. Aquatica has a perimeter of a little over 3,700ft, Typhoon is about the same, Blizzard Beach is a little over 4,000, and the usable area of the plot between the two hotels has almost 4,200ft. Now, the layouts of all 4 parks would not fit there, because they are circular and the Universal plot would require a rectangular shape, but a full sized water park is possible there.
It's all up to how they do the layout and how many guests they're looking to attract. Also, parking would probably come into question, as the parking structures may begin to get pushed to their limit after Potter 2.0. But they could maybe put the water park's parking lot on the remaining land next to CBBR.
Maybe this new bridge they are buidlign will play some part in the parkign situation for the water park if they do have people park on the CBBR plot.
Was just thinking that the thing I hate most about water parks is climbing stairs.
If it is wondersea island could they put it between marvel and toon lagoon (where the empty stadium is)
and design it so some of the slides go out over the lagoon?(were the games are now) put in an open concept very large elevator
to take you up to multiple slides/rides.If the rides start at the high side (toon lagoon side) and end low side ( marvel side )
they could incorperate that hill in the design.
