Springfield Expansion

[Andy]

Update from me late tonight, just now leaving Universal.

Can confirm that the plan is for the restaurants to open on 6/1. Pretty much the Food Court area only for now. There will be a manager-level preview on Friday. Cards/tickets have been handed out for free items, which include:

- Calamari
- Fish dishes
- "Sideshow Bob" - No one is quite sure what that is yet from the people I've talked to. Thought is that it is probably a burger.

This is great news as I plan to be in the parks on Sunday

Maybe "Sideshow kaBob"?

Those two are indeed Frying Dutchman items. And I believe the Sideshow Bob will indeed be a special sandwich from Krusty Burger.

I unfortunately will not be able to do the preview. I will be there on 6/1 though.

I'll see you there! :thumbs:

great pictures HTF!! thanks for sharing

 

[USO92]

Awesome! So much has changed since saturday! Its crazy!

Now, for this brick wall. I noticed that they probably aren't extending the waterfront edge correct? So are they adjusting the elevation to the entire waterfront to give it that
"two story" look that we see in the concept art?

 

[blue180]

I'm just trying to visualize how the waterfront is going to work....and I just can't see it. Like where the pillars are and the lower area in the concept art

It appears the Moe's window problem is now a thing of the past. Looks great.

 

[Felipe]

Awesome update! Thanks, HTF! :thumbs:

Moe's windows look opaque, not see-through. Hmm...

Everything else looks great :thumbs:

 

[bobwadd]

Looking good :thumbs:

 

[wizwit]

Thanks for the update, Hate.

Moe's looks...........better.

 

[Nick]

Everything about this area is looking great... except Moes. Don't like the sign and the windows look like painted cardboard.

Other than that though, everything is looking great. :thumbs:

 

[jtsalien]

Maybe Moe's is built to look better when you drink more Duff? :shrug:

 

[Accio Butterbeer]

I thought we already knew those weren't going to be the permanent windows before? But yeah those windows look great. Also didn't they just start building Duff Gardens? Look at it already! Universal is so fast when they are building.

 

[Orlandolover]

HatetoFly could you tell us how Moe's Windows appear in person. Are the windows cardboard or is that a temporary place holder? The texture is difficult to tell in pictures
