Does anyone know how they will announce this new land, will it be like Transformers with the lagoon show or something different?

Update from today,

 

[Shadow Carelli]

Holy cow!!!!! Wow thanks for those pics HTF!!!!

 

[bobwadd]

Wow, that's a lot of steelwork!

Thanks for the shots. :thumbs:

 

[Hockeyman55]

Amazing how different it looks from last weekend. Thanks for the awesome updates HTF

 

[Porkchop]

They are blazing through these. And wow, comparing the buildings to surrounding ones and people, you see how MASSIVE they are. Gringotts bank show building is huge. Huge show stopper for UNI. Bravo!

Thanks for the pics HTF! That staircase in JP remains closed does it not? That dock area was my favorite area to decompress and/or make cell phone calls. :'(

Thanks for the update, HTF! :rep: Great pics! :thumbs:

Incredible how much different this looks from just a few days ago... INSANE progress being made here. Very exciting, very encouraging! :smiley:

I was at USF on Saturday, the construction is coming up really quick!! I can't wait for the detail work to start.

 

[Teebin]

So, is this the southeast corner of 64G? It appears very set back from the service road in this picture, yet it appears much closer to the cannery building on the water management diagram. Is it actually right up next to the service road or if not, is something else coming?

Oh.... wait... is this lower construction on the far left something even closer? :

 

[UK-Trigg]

Wow, steel is flying up.

Great update HTF :thumbs:

To me it looks like where 64A ends and 64F begins. In the plans, 64G is way closer to the Disaster Service Road.

You may be correct! I guess I am just a steel hog.

To further clarify, I mean this:

That's not a window, it's a mouse hole!

Not to mention I went there the January after it opened and it was a mad house!!!! We did single rider for FJ (about 25 minutes) and then I wanted to stop and get something from one of the stores and there was a 45 minute wait. We just left. We had been there for softs (just couldn't ride FJ) and had no desire to wait an hour for some chocolate

Hopefully in early November or December of 2015 (Usuallly book each year or very two years at this time) ill be enjoying the whole harry potter experince. I just hope that by having two lands in two parks, it spreads out crowds and makes wait times go down.

I think Universal will make a huge deal/announcement out of the expansion. I would think it would be on a much larger scale.

Great pics htf! Amazing progress so far!

 

[Sleepyhollowstudios]

Well, how did they announce Phase 1?
