They have not, they'll be updating it next month. I saw what the new map will look like. Plaza and Tower look so cool on the map. It was also very weird seeing the map without Curious George. It's just a big block of trees, like the graphic they currently have in place of Plaza on the map. Looks very weird! To enter Simpsons and the Tour, everyone will have to be going completely AROUND the plaza, past the Simpsons ride. Everything will be walled off from Shrek on.The plaza looks amazing!!! That area looks much more open than it used to.
Have they updated the park map to include the plaza?
Could Springfield be coming?To enter Simpsons and the Tour, everyone will have to be going completely AROUND the plaza, past the Simpsons ride. Everything will be walled off from Shrek on.
Universal Plaza looks excellent! Feels so different to have it all open! It's so hot, and the water play area is super popular already haha. The Tower looks AMAZING in person, although I do have a few gripes detail wise I'll discuss later. It was amazing seeing so many executives, contractors, and even costumed characters just standing around the Plaza and looking around like geeky fans haha.
But I can't stress how great it looks and how much it makes a difference. Really opens up the area and brings the upper lot together. Also, i found out that they have underground lighting rigs that can come up for Grinchmas and I saw where they come from, which will be great for Grinchmas!
Apparently the reason that it took so long to complete was that they went through THREE different contractors before it got finished....crazy.
But I do love the Tower haven't tried Pink's yet.
Grinchmas is going to be interesting... the theater setup is going to be very cramped.They have not, they'll be updating it next month. I saw what the new map will look like.

I mean....it IS pretty popular in Florida...so.... The new building they're building next to the existing Studio Tour bathrooms WILL indeed be a new bathroom facility. The existing bathrooms are some of the oldest bathrooms in all of Universal. BUT...I'm curious to see now if the bathrooms will be themed to Springfield...Could Springfield be coming?
I'm not too worried about Grinchmas now. Yeah, it'll probably be a bit more cramped than previous years but I'm sure they'll make it work beautifully and it'll look great, especially since they have those rising light rigs under the ground apparently. And wow....crazy, hu? This project wasn't THAT big of a construction deal but it sure turned out to be. And yeah, i know a few details aren't ready yet, but I have a few gripes regarding some details that might be finished about the tower but looked half assed. Not bad, but I have a very constructive eye, especially being a Disney fan who's a nut about details. I'll go into it a bit later. I still loved it all regardless, especially the towerGrinchmas is going to be interesting... the theater setup is going to be very cramped.
And yeah, not only contractors and construction crew strikes, but the site had a lot of problems with the dig and the groundbreaking. Not to mention the various redesigns.
Also remember: the finishing details are not on yet.
Studio Tour is going to have an interesting existence in the next few years, that's for damn sure.
Is it the Falls Lake area?I had such a blast talkin to a bunch of cast members today. and I think I have a very good idea of where Diagon Alley might start...
My bad, my bad, I meant Hogsmeade haha!!!! Typo haha, i was thinking of Florida at the moment. NO Diagon Alley. But yeah, i can pretty much see where Hogsmeade might starr! I would like to say that in my opinion, we will NOT get any sort of Phase 2 in Hollywood. They're going through such hell to retrofit the park to add our own Phase 1, I sincerely don't see us ever getting Phase 2. And I'm fine with that. I don't want an oversaturation of Potter.Is it the Falls Lake area?
I meant Hogsmeade, my total bad haha. I edited my post.Diagon Alley????
