The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade (Orlando): Part 2

[JoeCamel]

Fingers crossed.

Saw the start of rockwork forms at the base before the scrims went up so I hope they do more of that and lots of plants. Maybe someone needs to take a peek over the wall? I still think my idea of a wall of succulents would have been amazing, high maintenance but amazing.

A wall of succulents is always a good idea

A wall of succulents is always a good idea

My dream is they do a living mural relevant to the movies

Some Fallen Kingdom vibes coming off this lightly themed wall.

In all semi-seriousness, they need a lot of foliage in front of that.

A lot.

I think you will get your wish

I saw someone unironically call this locker structure one of the best examples of what UC can do...

I don’t think a lot of people realize how common it is for a building that is in two different areas to have two different theming packages.

This is definitely not as bad as it could have been, but I’m still waiting to see the final product.

A decent start, but...

 

[Mad Dog]

In another year or two of growth the wall will be mostly hidden.

The Jurassic Park side of this would appear to be finished:

I'm a touch underwhelmed. It's not nearly as dense as I'd like to see it.

Give it a year.

Give it a year.

Seriously Bamboo grows like crazy

I mean, we'll see. I hope so. There's not really much room between the structure and the pathway for anything to fill in, though.

 

[shiekra38]

Gah, I wish they could just continue the rockwork on the side of the Hogwarts showbuilding

That being said, bamboo grows like crazy and it should be quite thick by summer

It looks better than it did, and will only get better as the greenery fills in.

Sounds Epic

 

[OLSinFLA]

Probably a reference to Epic...

 

[Legacy]

It’s probably an EU reference, but it doesn’t have to be. There were two rumors for Diagon additions (Knight Bus and Ministry).
