We have a speculation thread for that sort of thing. This is for Amity.

Someone ought to find out where they are dumping all of the Jaws wreckage. I bet a few would enjoy being dump pickers.

AmusementPics is reporting that all of the buildings (except Nathan's and the boathouse) on the "JAWS side" of Amity have been completely demolished....

New info from Epcot Explorer's Encyclopedia including grading plans. I can't look at the plans at work (too big of a file), but you guys should check it out.

We don’t often venture into what’s going on over at Universal, as it’s technically outside the “Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow” boundaries, but if something rather interesting pops up we’ll give it a look.

As is the current case with the now defunct Jaws attraction at Universal Studios Orlando. Universal closed the attraction and began demolition without any word on what it was to become. So, it’s a mystery with many rumors. It’s a large plot of land and Jaws was a major attraction, so it’s expected to be something big once it is revealed.

The most we can do is offer up what little we know – and that’s the plans for the mass grading of the former attraction site. It’s essentially the foundation for whatever they’re building in the future. The paperwork was recently filed with the water management district and it’s a 6MB PDF. If you’re intuitive, you can likely make out some rough building outlines and general walkways that will be coming to the area based on their elevations. It’s a topography map, after all. As always, we’ll post more on the project as it becomes available.

I wish I knew how to read plans. But there are outlines of the buildings. Gringotts is huge!

Once I look at them I'll try to decipher the best I can.

--- Update ---

Gringotts looks massive.

In case you can't see Diagon Alley and the brick wall I've highlighted them.

Diagon Alley, main path leading directly to Gringotts building, kooky angled streets. It would seem that other website was purposely fed true leaks by UC back in early January. That forces me to believe the ride vehicles were pretty accurate after all. Basically Mummy rebuilds.

I mean that's kind of what we always figured. And I believe the new coaster will have increased range of motion.

And I would also think their story line was false, considering Radcliffe said he wouldn't come back to the character for more theme park stuff.

In these days of CGI... he wouldn't have to. But I agree that story lines can be changed much later into the game.

I wouldn't expect them to do CGI and a different voice actor when they have the real deal across the street, but I could be wrong.

Perhaps. We also do not know what green screen from the last film or the FJ filming was never used. Anything is possible.

The story line sounded like a bad fanfic.

I found one thing surprising! That they are leaving so much unused space to the west side. I calculate as much of 280' of apparent open lot.

And what is to become of the waterfront? Will they build something there and if yes, why is it not on this diagram?
