Just the Harmonius fountains that haven't been turned on yet

At least I'm consistent

The barges are “done” though. They aren’t under construction. They’re also pretty obtrusive to guests’ lines of sight. Turning on the water isn’t going to change their obtrusiveness. The wall is still getting painted, and literally the back of a building.

I remember people freaking out that the Hagrid drop building was flat gray.

Then they painted trees on it and it became a non-issue.

I also remember people freaking out that the rock work for Kong and VelociCoaster was too saturated. They faded and it became a non-issue.

I remember people freaking out that the back of FJ lockers was too exposed. Then they planted the bamboo and it became a non-issue.

You are consistent, I’ll give you that. A lot of people will consistently freak out about unfinished projects then breath a massive sigh of release when it’s fixed like their panic made a difference.

We're not starting a change.org petition or something lol

We were commenting on being bummed about an orange fence being present on the waterfront and hoping that trees get placed in front of it

Do you and Joe not think we realize the project isn't complete?

Of course we know there's a possibility it has yet to be finished and we were speaking to that possibility of a little more being done.

It's an ugly fence as of posting this on 12/26...I hope it looks better on 12/27

So, you’re giving a construction project 24 hours? Waiting until 1/26 (or 2/26) for an improvement is far more reasonable.

It's too good to have a garish fence spoil pictures of an otherwise beautiful addition

Is the area down closest to the water going to be open to guests, or will it essentially end up being extended queue area and therefore not a place a guest can hang out in?

Taking a guess it'll be both depending on need.

I believe the right side closest to Potter should always be open to guests, but we'll see as there have been some changes to the plans.

Between social distancing and the newness of the ride, they’re going to need all of the queue space they can handle for awhile. I hope one day we'll be able to freely walk around down there because it’s going to look really nice.

I would often spend time down by the water while enjoying a beverage, and I'd like to again at some point.
