Walls up around the Groove

There's a new notice of commencement for Nassal to add new "Interior Additions" to the new Universal Studios Store. Was filed a couple days ago.

Listed as P298, which was the project number for combining the retail locations into the new store, so I assume that what this is for anyway.

Maybe themed Xmas display? Not sure. They do prefabricated work all the theme parks, in case you aren't aware.

Another permit for P235 was filed last week and it included the building number, B713 - which confirms that P235 is indeed for The Groove - not too surprising, considering the work walls.

Can’t lie if this means an SNL bar is coming, I’m legit obsessed with this replacement.

I think it’s the other one. Escape Room.

I don’t know about the supposed SNL one. Still doesn’t feel real. At least the escape room has a trademark.

Either I’m cool with, as a massive SNL fan, the ideas surrounding it sound super intriguing.

Escape Room is real. SNL thing might be somewhere in the pipeline but not close.

 

[Imperius]

Super excited for a universal built escape room.

 

[Skold]

Curious how they'd handle capacity issues for an escape room. That said, VOID seemed to work just fine.

Nothing to really worry about. It’s just like any other escape room. Book online and if it’s filled it’s filled.

Considering the actual rooms at the VOID weren't that big it was easy to squeeze duplicates in.
