I may reupload this at a later date, as I havent included all retention ponds (same capacity just moved). but here is what I would do to build out the #EpicUniverse South Campus with City Walk 2.0 and a 4th Gate, parking garage too. I have even drawn in the ring road.
Point is, it's fully connected to the BOH area with the ring road, and universal way if needed. Parking garages over the road replace the lot, similar parking capacity to North Campus, and City Walk 2.0 sits in between both parks #EpicUniverse and the new park is bigger than IOA
In case it needs reiterating:the drainage plan was for 90% buildout of the entire 550 acre project site. so as long as they have the same pond capacity they can move them anywhere. They wouldnt have planned enough ponds for 90% buildout if they only ever intended to develop half
We have an outline for Monsters E-ticket foundations #EpicUniverse
For those who want to compared what were expecting versus what we get
*Cough* @lukefmorris
We have foundations poured for station and DK show building, the Land facing wall of Mario kart and other elements in the SNW land #EpicUniverse
Closer look at the foundations for Donkey Kong #epicuniverse
#EpicUniverse so we have one wall of Mario Kart almost ready for concrete, and the trench dug for the North wall . Looks like a large crawler crane being assembled
I've cropped Monsters land like this so you can see the outline (right) of Dark ride, and the noticeable absence of any foundations where the Theatre building was meant to go #epicuniverse
#EpicUniverse SNW Land overlayed with where stuff should go , Dotted lines are the Coaster track layout. looks like the unusual forms are where I believe Yoshi queue is, so perhaps the stair well up to the load platform.

@AliciaStella OK final shot of the night, this beautiful shot by @bioreconstruct really caught my eye, as where the parking lot will sit. #epicuniverse
Thanks to the eagle eye of @Disneyhead
member spotting the sheet piling taking place. I was able to confirm by location they have started construction on How To Train Your Dragon Roller Coaster, they are beginning foundations for Scene 2 building #EpicUniverse:
zoomed in look here #EpicUniverse
the #EpicUniverse #HTTYD Sheet Piling is living in my head rent free today. we saw this being used was for Hagrids drop track building, wondering if the second show scene is a partial trench. I have an example of @bioreconstruct aerials below:
@bioreconstruct Tonight I am looking at the proposed plans for the Housing for Tomorrow project intended to create affordable housing south of #EpicUniverse can see they intend to upgrade Tradeshow Road creating a better connection between Universal Boulevard and Destination Parkway
Here is a closer look, note they are mentioning Intermodel transport on the drawing, I will come back to that later. #EpicUniverse
NB I misspoke when i said permits, this is from a publicly available document, but is in fact still in the planning stages there are no permits for Housing for Tomorrow project as of yet. this is the proposed masterplan for the project #EpicUniverse more details below:
If Monsters theatre is gone, and family coaster is the replacement, we have an analogue in the UK that fits that bill. here's shows how that could fit the space. with room spare for longer track. if mystery warehouse (dash line) is gone, that could use that area too #epicuniverse
A lot of people have automatically assumed this rumoured ride would be inside, when the land already has that. If it were me, i would take inspiration from Phantasialand and get the village theming like Taron's sister ride RAIK does #epicunivers
February 2022 #EpicUniverse site Sentinel view
Update about #EpicUniverse
#EpicUniverse Monsters Land March 2022 update from @bioreconstruct will zoom in on the next tweet for details
#EpicUniverse As mentioned by @AliciaStella @OrlandoParkStop you can see the work they are doing on the Moat, theres a clear outline for the pathway to the ride there
In case you missed it @AliciaStella dropped a cool new video with more resort hotel details #EpicUniverse
Apologies, in my sleep deprived stupor i managed to delete the tweet the other night, so now i have the time recovering I thought id make some tweaks, this layout is taken from documents in public domain, ive tried to make it more realistic to show the grading plans #EpicUniverse
Gonna pick out some of my fave details. and have an exciting observation I have made in my analysis. First up, the Statues in the lake will have flames, note the coaster goes into the trench under the bridge, before the helix.
As construction continues, with @bioreconstruct Aerials. start looking out for the topography in the coaster station area being forms....part of it sits in a valley of sorts and the station seems to be 10-12ft above the area to the right
The topic of childrens' play areas came up this week, i think raised by @ScottGustin , honestly the planned area in Dragons land looks so much fun and so vast #EpicUniverse
Resetting the thread timeline #epicuniverse
Started this #EpicUniverse thread almost a year ago with a Sat image, Google now a new High res Sat image. thanks to the work by @bioreconstruct I can date when this image was captured almost to the day, the clue is the chiller plant
