It looks mighty tight there
WESH 2 fails so much.
It is literally the year 2013. iPhones could take better pictures than that.
Seriously!
I'm glad we'll be seeing some better pics soon!

Yessuh, I want to be able to count the hairs on the Nassal worker's butt cracks. :stunned:
PS: That is intended as an outrageous overstatement of how much I look forward to hi-res pics. I hope the original hi-res will be available as a separate link.
My guess is an employee catwalk of sorts. If you look closely on the Goblin Corner photos it appears as though the staircase and railings run directly into the overhang. The overhang runs directly into the side of the Leaky Cauldron structure. So perhaps it is a means to alleviate the inevitable congestion. A quick way to get workers from point A to point B. Crazy idea, I know. But for the life of me I can't figure out what else it could be.
Yeah. It will be great for shade. As far as what it is themed as? It reminds me of the shot we see out of Harry's room in the Leaky Cauldron during Azkaban. There was a big elevated span of steel. Partly a covering, but it looked like part of it ended in a train shed of sorts. My memory may be fuzzy...
Exactly what I was thinking. Here's a good view:

From those small blurry pictures, it is hard to tell if they are sculpting the bricks in place or if they are prefabbed. Has anyone here had eyes-on?
Too, the (what-I-assume) might be the leaky and/or borgin burkes location is very very very tall relative to the other buildings. Why might this be?
