Universal Orlando Running Out of land?

[Legacy]

No new rides opening over this next week.


But Jimmy Neutron's NickToon Blast opened not that long ago where Hanna-Barbara used to be (And it's a good ride; I thoroughly enjoyed it). Shrek should be opening up pretty soon, next to Jimmy's new attraction. We have a wait on anything else after that at Uni.

USF/IOA has plenty of land that they have aquired to expand, but is was cheaper to put the new ride where an existing one was already, they have all the infrastructure for it right there without having to build a compleatly new area for it, and there is no practicale reason to build on virgin land when you have an empty place already to build on. keps the maintainance cost down by not having more area to maintain

Not to change the subject, but that's also why Space took longer to make than Mummy will. Horizons had to be demolished, and another building built in it's place.

copy paste or whatever...
Just in case it does not work just go to www.orlandorocks.com and click on theme parks and then on IOA, then on construction photos it should be on the first page.
