from what I’ve read the building next to GoG where the jet will sit is the future home of the entrance and queue for the forthcoming E ticket.

You’re just jealous you waited that long with your sassy niece for a 30-second coaster that barely hits 15 mph when wet.

This is true, that's the entrance. But the show building is positioned at a 45-ish degree angle to a line parallel to the entrance building. Further there seems to be a smaller, shorter structure attached to the main show building-possibly queue-positioned at the middle right of the concept image below.

And so there is. So what’s the building gonna Be used for until they announce the big attraction.This is true, that's the entrance.

Correct. It's just not opening with Spiderman and rest of the campus. Only the outside of the building will be ready and used as a m&g until the show building behind is finished in a few years.

Right. Then the question would be, what’s it gonna be used as till construction begins or is this the beginning? I have yet to hear reports of any real land clearing.
What I always thought was crazy about the placement of Matterhorn was that it used to be part of Tomorrowland lol. I mean what is 'futuristic' about a Swiss mountain??? Sure it doesn't really fit in FL but the 1983 revamp made it feel integral to the land. It just proves from the very beginning when it came right down to it they will add whatever they need if it's simply a space issue.

I'm of the opinion that anything can fit anywhere as long as it's entertaining. The first thing I ever saw of Disneyland back in the late 80s was a photo of the castle with the Matterhorn looming in the background and it was so provocative, I just wanted to go there. Disneyland has always been a hodgepodge of stuff regardless of what all the historian fans will go on endlessly about on the internet. Theme is flexible. I mean, Pirates of the Caribbean is in New Orleans section. Star Tours is in Tomorrowland, which is supposed to be the future, and that takes place a long time ago.

I hope they have a Cinnabon and a Jamba Juice in there.

SBC with the Matterhorn actually isn’t strange at all. Here’s the real life inspiration.

Have you ever been to Downtown Cleveland? It's a real living breathing urban center with fantastic restaurants, tons of bars and shopping, big league sports venues, museums plus the Rock & Roll HoF, and, now, Vegas-style casinos. And it's all accessible via clean and efficient metro lines or blissfully uncongested freeways. I lived in Cleveland for a year and found the people there the happiest I've ever encountered. It's a great city even if parts of it are not exactly pretty.I was just as shocked to discover this as anyone, but when on the Bonvoy website recently I learned that there is actually a Ritz-Carlton in downtown Cleveland. And it wasn't closed in 1982, it is still in functioning operation today!
So it's entirely plausible that there was a boozy and spa-infused research trip into gritty Rust Belt environs for Mr. Rohde and top WDI executives as they camped out in the Cleveland Ritz. I wonder what little charm he bought in Cleveland to add to his distended ear jewelry to remind him of this ultra edgy project? A tiny bronzed bottle of generic Opioids? Maybe a little sterling silver heroin needle?
