I'm really curious they they've left the two outermost sections of the old wall as well...themed viewing areas for Cinematic Spectacular? Only thing I can think of at the moment.
They are holding back excess water that they dewatered. They will come down last.
I wondered this about two months ago but didn't feel confident in it. There is a grading line on the water docs that may be the actual cut of the new lagoon wall. I have highlighted it below. What do you think?
The thing to look for going forward is that weird angled cut between the curves. I have never understood why it is there, but the grading line follows it.

That would be odd.
Btw, Attractions Magazine got pics of the big section of old wall being removed from the MiB side where it would conflict with the new wall.

While I can't confirm it, I can tell you what I saw last night. While I was back there I noticed what I thought could be a crane boom section hanging from what was then a fairly small crane. These kinds of cranes go up in sections, so I would say that is very likely true.
In the pictures Attractions got yesterday, there is a sizable crane hoisting up something large back there. Could be getting started on the Gringotts area.
Is central florida running out of cranes yet? If they keep taking all of them, I won't have any to tell me secret things.
yeah, if anything I would love for them to create the entire arc.

Really loving the look. I wonder if that's water in those cut outs or planters/green space. Both would be very welcomed additions. Also, it looks like Teebin's St. George statue will be right in the middle there.
Now Lee just needs to send us the rest.

It looks like the Leaky Cauldron in the middle near the circle with entrances through the brick walls on either side? And possible an exit to the left if that.
Oh, and I believe that it will be water that is in the cut outs.

The building in the middle has no street entrances. So it's something that can only be entered inside the alley. Same with the building on the top.
Leaky can be entered from the Muggle world, so it's probably the building on the bottom.

They are basically creating a mini-maze for the entrance. You won't be able to see diagon until you walk through and around. Regarding the notches facing the lagoon. I am putting my bet on park benches.
If they do go with Victoria Embankment, I have been told they will either have them created by the same foundry in London, or there is a possibility they might be created by Tuscumbia in Alabama.

If it is Tuscumbia Iron Works, lemme know and I'll take a little field trip for some pictures if I can when the time is right.
We won't really know unless you go over and knock on their door and ask for a tour. :wave:
