I think expanding Seuss into LC would just screw the Islands theme up even more than it is now. You cross a long bridge over water only to find yourself...still on Seuss Island.
The problem is though where would you put a Grinch coaster? The Lorax is taking up the only expansion pad Seuss has. And the thing is, according to the stories I've heard, Universal was choosing between building a Grinch coaster or an Amber Mine coaster at JP + Lorax ride, and obviously the latter won out.
I really do want a Grinch ride, but I don't think it's in the cards anymore.
To be honest, I would say bulldoze NBA City, use 70% of the space for the Lorax dark ride, give the remaining 30% to a WWE Hall of Fame museum, have both buildings share the same backstage area.
Is the grinchmas theater in a soundstage? Or a temporary outdoor setup?

I don't see why if they ultimately wanted a Mt Crumpit someday to build it in place of one of the old sound stages. Those things aren't used anywhere near as much as they once were. If it were up to me, I'd place an entrance on either side of the Circus McGurkus cafe and build it out back there...
Or crazier yet...build it out on Sneetch Beech overlooking the lagoon and intertwining with the Trolley Train ride! That'd be one awesome visual as you came around the corner towards Seuss Landing!
I know destroy the sound stages is a fairly constant suggestion because no one ever listens to the fact that they are pretty much always in use. No one ever wants to hear Blue man, Powerball, Commercials, Dave School, Macy's, attraction development, ect. But this is the perfect time of year to ask those of you who don't think we use the sound stages and they should be destroyed: Which HHN houses should go? I mean I pretty much see the same names calling for the destruction of the sound stages that also call for building on the MIB expansion plot. So we'll have two houses, disaster and parade building?
They use the Grinchmas stage? It could easily get annexed into SL. I understand most of this but quite frankly, I'd rather have more attractions than some haunted houses. Universal could always just do Halloween versions of their most popular rides/shows to make up for the sparse amount of haunts
I think the park can work around expansion for the sake of Halloween Horror Nights. They might have to get a little more creative.

Doesn't Universal have like ten or twelve sound stages? They easily fit two haunted houses in each soundstage, so if they kept three or four just for HHN they'd be fine.
I know the Dave school uses those stages too...but I don't see why they need more than half the current soundstages. It's not like they're filming tv shows movies and commercials all the time like they used to back in the early 90's.
I really can't believe no one has thought about the Island Skipper Tours dock area. Fill in the water way towards the LC bridge and you have a decent sized expansion pad for the Grinch. Unless you all think the Island Skipper Tours are coming back?

I doubt they'd go through the trouble of doing that, especially since there seems to be some kind of maintenance bay at the end of that water way.
