Muppet fountain gone

[Father Robinson]

The fountain in front of the Muppet theater has been temporarily filled in and is now being used as a planter. Not sure how long it will remain like that because the controls for the fountain were located in the construction zone and had to be moved. They told me the fountain will be returning.

Yes, it has been this way for quite some time.

They did that so you won't notice the balloon is missing.

Looks horrible.

My god. I've given you a "like".

Repositioning the fountain infrastructure is part of the works being done on what's left of SOA for the SWL connector road. I'd imagine when this finishes later the year the fountain will return, if not before.

The real question is what are those two squares on the front of the Muppet-Vision building for?

One for Statler, and one for Waldorf -- the two squarest Muppets.

They could be temporary covers hiding the new sign attatchments.

Or not.

It is that.

Are you sure your mouse didn't inadvertently misfire ?

 

[marni1971]

It is that.

Do you mind? I'm trying to be deliberately vague and ambiguous.

I know it was for sightlines but I miss the balloon

They're going for a more.... upmarket... look for the theatre. But yes, the balloon also succumbed to sightlines.

Ah ok. So we should expect some cosmetic changes to the exterior then? I think you may have mentioned that somewhere else before.

 

[elchippo]

I don't think I will mind if they upgrade the exterior of Muppetvision to look more like a theatre with a lit marquee, etc.. Makes total sense. Plus we lost that with the SOA demolition to HISTK.

Now I feel like you're deliberately throwing us off the trail

Yep.
