It’s a 5 square foot building, keep in mind.The hart of the facial recognition system is going to be installed!
Or it does something else. Anyway exciting! (disclaimer: I'm a former IT specialist)
Amazing how small the chips are these days.....It’s a 5 square foot building, keep in mind.
They need to hurry. HHN is almost over and they need a place to store all the propsThat's not a chiller plant.
Is that not one of the large warehouses?That's not a chiller plant.
I think it's actually 5k square feet. Or at least they applied approximately 5,232 square feet worth of impact fee credits.It’s a 5 square foot building, keep in mind.
That's a chiller plant.That's not a chiller plant.
I'm really excited for this. It's the first time I will be able to see a theme park build from the Netherlands while people hang out of helicopters and use drones to report on it. And a forum with people who will notice every concrete slab, bolt and metal pole that is added.
Of course we will get the "this wall would be the death of the park" and "that color looks like orange bird. I hate this park" but in the end we will have a brand new theme park to visit.
I only hope that the one thing worst than the pandemic, stupid people, will not ruin the progress again.
To be clear, the one vertical building at backstage EU is absolutely, 100%, the cooling (chilled water) plant.
The cooling plant is the only thing that's the right size to be that structure and has issued building permits, and it's in the right location. Looking at the below image from bioreconstruct, the building on the left will house the chillers and pumps while the metal structure on the right will support the cooling towers.
Can easily be rethemed as the Killer Plant for HHN.EDIT: Here's one from awhile back that designates that area just left of that pond as "Chiller Plant."
As another data point, the recently constructed OUC cooling plant for the new MCO south terminal has a somewhat similar "metal structure beside building" setup:Yea I was looking at some maps and permit images earlier and you’re right, that’s the chiller location. Good call.

On a different topic, now that some digging has started in the hub area does anyone have a good way of referring the different areas of the hub? I've been struggling with how I would try to simply but accurately describe where the work is happening.
Outer north ring of the hub. At least that’s what I went with.As another data point, the recently constructed OUC cooling plant for the new MCO south terminal has a somewhat similar "metal structure beside building" setup:

I think it's roughly what I've marked in red:Outer north ring of the hub. At least that’s what I went with.
Or, just to the right of the snowman’s head lol.
I count the bottom as a loop, so 3. There’s a full path around some water so it counts well enough to me.I think it's roughly what I've marked in red:
I guess that would be the outer path on the north and northeast sides of the hub's top circle.
The only question then is whether you consider the snowman to have 2 or 3 sections because the loop closest to the entrance is not very circular.
