Just playing around with Google Earth's street view inside Universal, I found quite the oddity. It seems one spot has old pictures, while a spot right next to it has new ones. So you can compare side to side what the park looked like before and after Rockit right there, including the view of the New York facade. Pictures can be seen on here, but if you want to see for yourself if happens at right about the end of the Jimmy Neutron/Despicable Me building. And forgive me if I made the images too big, not used to uploading images to anything really.

Yeah, I saw that awhile ago. It's interesting to see the park go from empty to full of people in seconds.

Haha, I noticed that as well. It's just floating above the lagoon, marking it's location, just looks weird when you look at it on an even plane, showing that it's somewhere behind all that crap.

I prefer the Islands of Adventure street view just cause you can still see the Dueling Dragons statue out front
