Upon arrival, I witnessed several concrete mixers pull onto the property. Major updates include the concrete paving of the park entrance driveway up to the gate, as well as development for the parks main entrance, past the parking lots.
Me too! There’s still hope “somewhere out there.” The updated concept art shows a blue water tower, right in front. While still generic, and part of a possible minions themed boat ride, they could pretend that this is the tower from the first movie where Fievel spent the night and sung his duet with his sister. Simply piping in music or a small sculpture of him sitting on it would be plenty. It would be a wonderful nod to the Universal classic that spawned Amblimation, which later became the Spielberg side of DreamWorks. I recall they used to show the franchise on the actual Universal Kids network channel many years ago. So with this being Universal Kids resort… …? Also would be perfect to give the old Playland a new home, either by putting it in the future expansion land for a few years, or within the actual hotel itself, as the Legoland Hotel has a playground inside. In any case, “never say never!” …”whatever you do.”
