Seriously...but Disney's projects lately seem to be put under the budget of several years, instead of all in 1-2 years, which is part of the reason. Still, Disney's work is definitely slloooooowwww

I don't know enough about Potter, but maybe they're talking in terms of the Potter world?
No, I just meant in terms of WWOHP when you're standing in Citywalk and you choose your destination.
IOA would be WWOHP West and USF would be WWOHP East.

That is still incorrect. USF is north of IOA. Funny that it will now be the exact opposite of the books and geography.
Ha
Ooops... I keep forgetting about the Hollywood duplicate. Unfortunately, I will continue to do so until they start ripping things down.

Here's a picture I took today at the construction area.
Well, that answers my question from two days ago... the old pilings are gone and they are DEMOLISHING the concrete jut-outs! I do hope they change the shape of the shoreline. :look:
I think they might do what they did to the old castle wall when potter was in construction. I think it might be similar, but a more modern theme since that would be in the front on the London side.
Very cool! Thanks for that pic! :rep:
The wood-deck look isn't really London, so it was almost a given that the wood part would be gone. I love the progress being made here!
Same here! Hopefully they'll pour some concrete and extend out into the water, at least as far as the decks were. And make it look good!

What a cool picture! Looks like they are re doing the concrete in that area. I really hope because demolition is moving along so quickly that we get an announcement soon!
Thinking back to what Disneyhead said a few weeks ago, I believe they are going to merely clean up and resurface these concrete jut-outs and put rails around. As Disneyhead said, this is prime real estate for watching the nighttime show. So forget my idea about reshaping the dock area right now. The show is coming in a matter of weeks as opposed to months and months... i think.
But this is just a small area and there's still plenty of other viewing areas. I'd hope they keep it closed for now, work on it to adding some more concrete and making a bigger area here. But yeah, they could as well be thinking of just using that section only. I just hope for more ;-P
Does it really take thaaat long for them to pour concrete and for it to set? I think a couple of weeks would be enough time, no? I'm no concrete expert...
Wow, I wasn't sure if they were actually going to do this, I guess Universal really jumped the shark on this one huh guys?
(Sheesh, I am so evil....)

I would think/hope they would go more for the grey granite (under the bridge) look; early 20th century. What was that lamp lit London walk a posted months ago? Similar and very similar to old New England cities today only more Victorian.
