Wizarding World - Diagon Alley Discussion - Part 2

Just because we know doesn't mean the general public does.

Well I guess you told me, and set me straight! :look:

Hey Teebs, it looks like they may be getting ready to put up the lamp posts and lion heads.

Yessuh, I was thinking the same. I will be filled with joy and rapture if so. eace:

Here are some pictures from Sunday, before the new waterfront wall was up. You can notice how they had already moved the existing wall back a bit, towards the buildings:

So. From what I have heard, it seems this project is pretty much back on track and the operational target remains pretty much the same. Yes, there is a date for operational and they are sticking to it or close to it. It will be pretty close to common sense for some of you.

I will let others here tell the newer members all that operational implies...

That is good to hear, was getting a bit concerned. Just hope the weather stays clear from now to June.

Agreed. I would assume that spring weather is part of their plan. Leaving interiors and covered areas for rainy days.

So, one day we get pics of the waterfront walls going up and no one has gone since to reveal to us the reason why? whine whine whine....

Nothing happened yesterday. Attractions Magazine was there and there was no change.

UORBuzz and Derek Burgan are there today, so maybe they'll see something.

Is it just me or do you guys think this looks filthy and wrong. How could they move the walls back and leave this on the floor for the public to see. Not that its a big deal but come on.

Anyone else notice the mounds of dirt under white tarps in the photos of the backside of Grimmauld? Gunna be filled with trees I hope!

I don't think it's a big deal. It's an active construction site. And otherwise, we wouldn't have even noticed the walls had been moved back

They started ripping out the concrete walkway along the waterfront, assume getting ready to pour and stamp final design.:thumbs:

It's a construction zone. I expect this area will be changing pretty regularly over the next 2 months.

If they are ripping it out then here is how it will likely be themed:

No--its not unreasonable to expect a world-class theme park that costs about $100 to get into to have clean sidewalks. I dont know the logistics of having guests pass by an active construction site, but it is bad show regardless.

Are those not markings to show where the benches and wrought iron railings will go? Look at the concept art for the London Embankment.

It's close, but that's just where the construction walls were. In a few days they'll be moved again, most likely.
