I really wish Universal/Disney would set up camera's on all builds so at the end of the build they could release a long time lapse of the construction so we get to see how everything comes together.

I think SeaWorld did that for Mako. I'd love to see the same thing, especially on a project of this scale. I can't see Disney doing it as it would ruin the magic and a storage medium hasn't been invented yet that could hold that many photos to create a time lapse.
Disney only needs one frame a month.
Following this tread is the best thing of seeing the waterpark grow, it's amazing.
It's been fascinating. Trying to find any photos of Typhoon Lagoon or Blizzard Beach being constructed is tedious and unrewarding.
Right, except the other slides appear exempt. Perhaps too dangerous for those not in complete control of their bodies?
This is the only construction project that I would love a live feed of. I think it is all so cool...
Honest questions: Do people in wheel chairs take the elevator, leave their wheel chair up top, go down the slide, and someone from UNI escorts the wheel chair down the elevator to the end of the slide? Hows that work?
I can't think of any water slides that have an elevator besides the ski lift at BB.
Looking at the water coaster, it looks like you'll enter and exit on the same platform which would be the perfect ride for any wheelchair users.

Volcano bay is cool.
Bio posted a bunch of new and great ground pics today on the twit. Great closeups. The project makes my brain go ZING! It almost makes Kong look silly and I don't mean that as an insult.
It's pretty neat to see the volcano lit up at night, even with all the scaffolding around it. They sure are working on it at night, into the late hours.

This annoys me as you can. I longer create a trial account with near map. I must have gone through about 30

This map has been removed from the UO app but they still have a bit for Volcano Bay. I've added the highest res version of the map I could create when it was still there.
It's amazing how close the western CBBR tower will be to the lazy river.
Edit: looking at the UO app image and the recent photos of the water coaster and people suggesting show scenes. I think in my mind, what I'm visualising is something similar in the uphill segments to the BTMR indoor lift hill. Watching a POV, it looks like a perfect match. At about 30secs in:

Me too. lol Probably why they went to a guided demo model. You could just keep setting up trials and never pay for it.
Seeing it from an aerial view really shows that there a a few spots where they can expand this park. Nice photos!
