Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit is 45% deleted
the attraction has been closed 21 days, @bioreconstruct.bsky.social has been doing an amazing job tracking this demolition, we believe that large portions near the loop will come out much quicker, will any of it be left in another 3 weeks?

Went back to the original architectural concept art as all the clues were there, and the cartoon map is just dumb. I feel this is a reasonably accurate layout for the land although i i will continue to refine it, "we've lost the cooling effect of the water at Haunted Mansion queue" - Bullshit

Update on DCA build. Got enough source pics to figure it out. I'm including building heights of PP to make more of a case it's not just a clone, it's most certainly taller, I could of course be wrong cos im just ...what was it?

Been trying out a different idea that adds more volcano theming. Slightly shorter slide than would speed up throughput #VolcanoBay

I've put in a water coaster. It's huge. Also a mini volcano bay for little ones with a gentle wave pool. A slide wheel by wiegand top left. More 🌋 features in the pool...and generally added more beach/lounger space. And lots of Cabanas to lower the price for Derek

I just asked The Good Place the same question, what you putting in the Volcano Bay expansion? It's less spacious than it may first appear I'll explain later when I drop what I've got masterplanned

Closer look at the mega plot potential build and extra hotel tower. Land divided with two Portals and lands, berm divider/ shared building. Just indicative show buildings for now

Ignore the layout of garage. There's newer ones I've posted since this. in reality it's only ~100acres, you can rob Peter to pay Paul by putting part of the basin inside the park but can't lose any of that pond acreage and it still has to basically be there for gravity reasons and somewhere to go

I've got sucked into this armchair thing and got a bit too into it. So big coaster weenie when you walk in, mack boat ride in the top corner, big indoor coaster too #epicuniverse

This idea gets more garage capacity and somewhat keeps elements of universal bld slightly smaller park. I don't really do the armchair Imagineering stuff...but the look of this park I could see being valley/forest it doesn't need the weenie imo

Got a couple of different thoughts on how parking garage & universal boulevard might work this was one idea of a total detour #epicuniverse

Looks like UDX are getting ready to grade some of the other parcels they own. Jury is out on whether it's a hotel or something else. This is not a rumour. Cos apparently I need to say that now
