No way that soon. More like end of the year probably. This will be a somewhat big project, like the one that built the new Studios store, as they have to remove a kitchen and walls in the center to connect everything.

Preview center has been under construction longest, so that's most likely going to open beforehand.
Preview Center will hopefully open some time this summer. I meant the Studios Store additions related to these two closures.

Latest article from @Alicia over at Orlando Park Stop:
Super Nintendo World Store and More Rumored for CityWalk Orlando
With two locations closing in Universal CityWalk Orlando, we now have rumors for a Nintendo-themed retail location and more to replace them
orlandoparkstop.com
Interesting that a candy shop (or significant candy area expansion) is a predominant rumor, given that Toothsome and its shop also already exist in CityWalk (albeit a distance away).
I will not mourn the loss of Quiet Flight, as I don't think I've been in there more than a single time, but I have always appreciated that CityWalk offered a few merchandise locations that were not explicitly tied to theme park merchandise and gave CityWalk some personality.

Different kind of candy offerings. Toothsome is more chocolate oriented.
Gotta have that sour gummy variety baggy..
Fudge and cupcakes counter too. Universal obsessed with them.
the margin on fudge must be absolutely bonkers
That reminds me, I need to get Boysenberry fudge from Knotts again.. but Butterbeer fudge at Universal is calling

All that matters is if the shortcut comes back. 
Watch Universal share a photo of them sealing up that doorway & saying "Enjoy the walk losers"All that matters is if the shortcut comes back.
I'd always try to make it look less obvious & act like I was legit looking at clothes... sometimes
Not me. I would just power walk right through.

I always thought the same. Whenever I see that counter I'm like "is anyone actually buying this?"
