I think the hub is already going to be a bit overwhelmingly large.

They can always add water world and its infrastructure in that nice little pocket! :D

I took this photo from Biorecontruct to show how little space there is between the left building and the coaster building.
If they want to develop the expansion I can imagine 1 large ip going in there (like LOTR). One portal has to be build between these structures and walkways. It could even have it's reveal moment when done smartly but dividing the plot into 2 lands would look very weird as you both have to go trough a long narrow area until the land actually can start.
Placing the portals back (also an option) would making them hard to find.
I'm confused about the design of this area. And than there is the problem of making the coaster invisible from both HTTYD and the expansion plot (if they actually want to go for a fully immerged 360 degrees "world" as promised.

Based on the dumpsters, that looks like about 200 ft wide. For comparison, Port of entry is just a little wider than that including the shops. No reason they can't work with that.

Nothing at street level except No Trespassing and construction entrance markers.

A bit of really good news (hopefully)-- when driving past the sewage plant on Sand Lake Road there has not been the overpowering smell of sewage that used to be constant. I know they are doing work on the sewage plant, so hopefully this means they actually have a remedy so the park will not smell like an open sewer all the time!

The Paris buildings have so many floors ... they should use them as suites for VIP events or something

The new Fire or Ice debate.

Team Yellow or Team Green? I think I am Team Green, but I won't really know until after I ride them both several times.

Having the dual tracks will definitely help with capacity and re-rideability. Hopefully the two tracks are different enough in experience to make them stand apart (and warrant multiple rides) but also compliment each other.

I heard a story today (third hand from a crane operator on EU) of a giant snake being lowered into one of the show buildings the other day. The person who told me didn't know which attraction it was for, but I assume it was Ministry of Magic or Monsters.

Also aren't all the major show buildings enclosed?

I assume they are partially enclosed, but they have to have large enough openings to take large show pieces in and out.

Well, of the dark rides one features Mario Kart, the other Universal Monsters, and the other Fantastic Beasts. A giant snake sounds like a fantastic beast.

That’s supposed to be sticking out one of the windows in the land, as its large scale version of course.

That hub carousel ride thing is huge, even compared to the fountain.

If the hub hotel has restaurants in those lower levels, they will be very popular for the views (and Instagram photos)

I can see people re-enacting the ending to John Wick 4.

Alicia has made me so lazy that I just wait for her videos to see the new pics. I know what most everything is but I need her to tell me just to be sure.
