Maybe the rigging will lower into the water...?
That's the million-dollar question! Is the lagoon deep enough?

I'm surprised they're not draining the lagoon for all this work.
When I went to DL, the WOC fountains weren't doing anything during the day, just sitting on top of the lagoon, looking ugly as heck. Hopefully the same thing doesn't happen with this, and Uni finds some way to get rid of them during the day.I suppose that like World of Color, the fountains/water screens could be active during the day without the LED colors. It's just that the black barges with giant criss-crossing metal trusses aren't as easy to look past than simple, white ballons floating in the lagoon.
I think it is remotely possible that if this is popular and holds people at night, a more permanent installation may be possible. This is the most elaborate thing I have ever seen them build/mount.
so does anyone know an exact date for when this will open or when we can see an announcement for it ?
For sure! And if Potter is coming to USF like we think, people would stay longer at this park too, so there would be more demand for nighttime stuff.
My word, those rigs are ugly. When it is complete it will still look like something is under construction. I bet a few tourists will ask if they are oil platforms.
(1/11/12) Several new photos showing off the progress of things on the Lagoon have been added to OrlandoUnited this week. (Scroll down to the bottom to find the new pictures.) There is an interesting shot of guys in the water working on something that I believe looks like it could be the fountain-head for a water screen, but I’m no expert, so don’t take my word for that one.
