Stoop

Stoop

:bonk: STOOP! Thank you! :thumbs:

So, could that be for building stoops? :look:

 

[Teebin]

^ Perhaps, but they seem to close together for that, if they are going for full scale. I suppose we could look up the address in the books and then do streetview in google maps. Search up and down the street for some architectural element that appears similar.

On ANOTHER note...
Going to be very very vague here, but I can tell you that decorative props are currently under construction and anything that isn't a prop, but that is decorative and can be prefabbed, is DONE. In the later vein, virtually no one is working on this project any longer.

Pictures can mess with size/dimension and this is the only perspective from which we have seen this, isn't it? :shrug:

BTW, Teebin, I have a note but you don't have an opening...

This project?

Telling.

I believe that's called a "juliette balcony" felipe

 

[Brervixen]

They're not called Stoops in England

They'd just be "steps" - a porch is enclosed.

Stoop was actually the word I was blanking on. I was looking at the ground floor, not the balcony. Thanks, though :thumbs:

So, let me know when steel is going up on the four, or steel is going up next to disaster service road.

Too... why is densglass going up on the lower half of the Gringotts building? Am I seeing that correctly? I can never figure out why they use perma something on the transformers entrance and densglass on other things and plywood on yet other things. What is the reason for these different substrates when it appears they are going to the same purpose?

I have too many readings of this comment. With limited man power their attention might be to Japan and Hollywood now.

 

[Eric]

This may be kind of random, but for some reason, I feel like I remember Thestrals being talked about for the area. Anybody hear anything about this?

 

[Manx27]

I have a question.
We know there will some kind of grand show entrance into DA with moving walls or projection or something, correct?
Will there be any other entrances coming from the San Fran or FFL area sides? Seems like they would have to have them for crowd flow.

I would think they would prefer limited access... to control crowd flow. Some one here knows whether or not they even allowed people to enter the WW by way of the old JP bridge during high traffic times. From what I could see, they were forcing them all to go over the newer wooden bridge, to enter through the main arch only.

Plywood for fastening to the surface, like roofing drip edge, Perma base is usually in wet/tile situations (no rot) and densglass usually gets a plaster/stucco over it.

 

[Manx27]

Well, there's what they want and then there's safety. There's gotta be a way out besides Leaky Cauldron

 

[TheBlackMamba]

For what part? Can you elaborate just a little more ?lol

This place is going to be carsland ground breaking IMO

Once this Harry Potter expansion opens up, somebody is going to ask "hey what about Carsland," and people are going to go like "what???" Hahaha

The first one already was. Hell, the first one was better than Cars Land.
