Here is a link to what the building looks like now

and here is what it used to look like

Wow... I have just in recent weeks discovered how much Uni was changed the late 90's. I recently saw a video of traffic driving right by the front of the universal arches in the early years and I couldn't belive what I was seeing.

Was the development of CW, IOA, HR, Portafino something that happened all at the same time? I know that MIB and Porta were being built in 1999 but I didn't realize how much of an earth mover this was. Especially with such an economy of space. Did this project have some kind of name or was it just the IOA development?

Regardless, it must have been the bigtime twitter among theme park enthusiasts.

I have only been to universal three times..once opening week when nothing worked and you got a free pass to come back..second a year later and the last time was new years eve Dec 31, 1998..I look at it now and can't even imagine what it's like now. That is why I love Nemo's updates. I mean when I first went you parked right at the main gate. Then the last time I went they were building IOA so I haven't even been there. Been to Disney World like 20 times just so much to do I never really make it to USF.. I have always enjoyed the times I have gone though
