But at least you won't be able to see Diagon Alley from the rest of the park, just London.
Diagon Alley is the draw and the main part, but the facades and where DA is located is London. The London Embankment has been mostly completed for almost a year now, just waiting to add lights and the such.
I think having a London cityscape works just fine, and fits in quite well with the rest of USF. I am more worried about the design / arrangement, and having major landmark buildings one next to the other, instead of looking more like a real city, with a major landmark building and more subtle ones around it. But I'm sure I'll like it either way, and it's a theme park after all.
Diagon Alley doesn't have snowy, dark looking buildings either. It's actually quite colorful, whimsical and cheerful.

? I'm not sure your motives behind your last post. If it was a genuine thanks, then you're welcome...if it was snarky, it's unnecessary.
Having London facades certainly does blend in with the rest of the city themeing, heck even without the London facades Diagon Alley is still a city so even that would fit.

Everybody, it is a studios park! Go to a real studio backlot and there is London next to New York, next to Mexico, next to some Dr. Seuss town. That is how backlots work, they only point the cameras in angles that get the theme they want. So you can't say this areas theme does not match that areas theme, the mix of themes is the grander theme of the whole park.
I'll put this nonsense to rest right now.
