Sure you can always argue that as time goes on we become more accustomed to things the way they are vs the way they were. Things become less obtrusive as we coexist with them longer. And for those who will know no different they will probably have no objections to this building. I am not so...

Yes but Universal Creative didn’t try to paint the exterior of the building a blue shade so it would “blend in”. They themed the exterior, however lightly, to look like a building that would be present in Jurassic Park. I think most are not offended by the size of the building as much as the...

It bothers me when people say you can’t build below grade in Florida because of the water table. You run into the same water table issues all the way up and down the eastern seaboard. It’s just a matter of cost. There were many options they could have chosen to minimize the skyline impact. I...

Yeah sorry I eventually got there. My bad.

Pretty sure the basement of ROTR in DHS is sub grade and still in construction.

I guess the point I'm trying to make is that by having Tron right next door it makes it easier to throw sientiment out of the window when it comes time to make some serious decisions about what to do with SM down the road.

I too doubt it will happen but the circumstances have increased the possibility of something like this happening. Like I said one could argue...

Now that they will have the "Spiritual Successor" next door to the original, one could argue it makes it easier to justify removing SM versus repairing/updating. From the way certain insiders regard the upkeep of SM in WDW from a fianicial standpoint it may just be easier for executives to...

I agree with your sentiment but they really should do something to dress up the area. It looks pretty rough. Even the paint color is faded in areas. It would be one thing if it were in an inconspicuous area but it’s the main hub of the park, they use those walls for the projection shows. And...

How would one explain what a "guest display area" is? Asking for a friend. They know what a sub station is!

Not to put words in someone else's mouth but I think the point they were raising is that in 5 years the average consumer would be able to mach the graphics cabability of this ride because the price with become more affordable. So if Disney is not consistently updating the graphics for the ride...

Obviously visible structures from the air may be hidden from the ground, I was simply asking because I know others have stated there are sight-line issues from ground level. Additionally they have painted the entire rear side of Grand Arts Theater the new color and it is not visible from inside...

@marni1971 Are the sight-line issues you mentioned the reason why re-painting of Grand Arts Theater appears to have paused? The pink tone color was being painted over with a new greener color but has been in its current state for several months based on Bioreconstruct's photo's from twitter.

My understanding was that the Indy coaster at DLP was a cheap filler for that park. Pretty much a lightly themed coaster to increase ride count and capacity. I can stand to be corrected as I have never visited DLP.

I guess if you've got vacant offices then use them.

If they are intending to do that, it kind of makes the amount of cast parking they built seem redundant unless they raze the parking structure.

In a semi-related post is the parking garage next to Toy Story land still used? The top deck always seems empty in arial shots, which is common for most garages, but alas raised the question in my mind.

Here is the article it was by travel and leisure https://apple.news/AcoOknFHdRiG8xoUvBZls2w

I read an article the other day that stated the park may be going vertical to solve the issues of space. This would be extremely expensive and would probably limit future expansion and construction but if the parking lot is indeed where the 3rd gate is to go what other options do they have? If I...

I would imagine if the rumors about entering one ride vehicle exiting on foot and then being transferred to another ride vehicle were true then this may be one of the systems they could use in the concrete cylindrical structure. In essence it could get you to the starship and unload you in the...
