Weirdly, the landscaping between the bus shelters and entrance looks better than the Celestial Park landscaping, which feels austere by comparison.

Its not complete. Still got nearly 3 months to go.

The large plantings generally look mostly complete, but I suppose we'll see. Flowers and annuals may be on their way to help brighten things, but I don't think we'll see much more tree density.

Only <checks sig> 76 days to go!

Hopefully we hear about a Nighttime Spectacular in less than 76 Days!

They won’t be sending construction equipment through these areas to install trees at this point. It’s been handed over to operations. This project is largely complete. Just final touch-ups and a focus on ride operations—things that can happen with guests (even if they happen to be TMs and their families) in the park. They would need to install construction walls for anything more and, needless to say, if that were still necessary, they wouldn’t be holding previews.

Any vast expanses of concrete we see now will be vast expanses of concrete in June. Just hotter. They aren’t going to dig a hole in the new concrete to plant a maple tree.

Dang!!!!
Celestial Park is Von Munchausen

Early on Universal indicated this thing was going to be adorned with plentiful tree, water and plant and we’re getting EPCOT level grounds

Agreed——-that is very safe to say.

I’m not getting it
***BUT** , based on your responses around here over the seasons I’m sure it’s both well timed and well placed

(((In full disclosure I’m 4 Long Island iced teas in down here in in playa del Carmen Mexico))

So that’s how I can justify all the jokes I make that nobody else gets!
