Springfield

[William]

Yay! More screens!

 

[Allen The Actor]

Well, the windows would ruin the forced scale of the top facades, which are supposed to be larger buildings in the "distance", and seeing our normal human heads out the windows would be weird.

But still odd that there aren't windows...it better not be screens...biggest pity is the view would've been GORGEOUS. Is it possible they'll cut out the windows later?

Or could it be that the kitchen is gonna be on the top level completely, and bottom level is all the seating? Nah, that'd be weird.

 

[William]

As mentioned earlier, if windows were part of the plans, we would've seen them by now. Maybe skylights?

I was looking at Park Journey's most recent Update and I never realized they were keeping Springfield Facade pieces backstage with the Potter stuff. The bottom photo on the left basically confirms no actual windows. Most likely will light up like the DM Facade. 

 

[William]

Oh my gosh yes yes yes

I am afraid that the inside is not going to change that much from an Orlando design.  Bland with a mural on the wall.  Pity, because as Alan said, the view would be nice.  

 

[William]

I'm just afraid that this place is going to be jam-packed once it opens. If Orlando's iteration is any indication, we'll be waiting a long time for this food.

 

[Allen The Actor]

You'll have to buy ME lunch if you want me to wait a long time in line to get food here. It's gonna be madness.

Think the House of Horrors restaurant/venue will open by then?

 

[William]

Good question. I really hope so, though I doubt it.

 

[Freak]

Good question. I really hope so, though I doubt it.

I think it'll be open by next Summer. Here's why:

Springfield: Had to tear down buildings and build a big, brand new structure. That's why it's taking a year and a half.

HoH restaurant: Structure is already there. All they have to do is gut the building and re-do the inside. They just started today.

From Ryanthempark on Twitter:

I'm guessing this will be our version of Duff Brewery? 

 

[...]

It's the perfect spot for it. I hope we get a smaller version of a DCA Paradise Gardens seating area with foliage and some nice calming tables to go with it.

 

[William]

I'm really really really trying to contain my excitement for this but it's really really really not working.

 

[Allen The Actor]

Wow that's pretty tall. It'll be nice have to have a garden-like area to drink and eat in, especially considering the second level of Springfield apparently doesn't have windows (is that even legal....? I'm sure it'll have windows.....)

Thumbs up to Chris who never gave up on claiming Louie's as the Duff Brewery.

 

[William]

Those long pipes in the center have got to be chimney stacks for the brewery. Here comes Duff!

It looks like Louie's can still become Luigi's and Duff Brewery will just be a new custom structure. Anyone else hoping they gut that portion of the Castle Theater overflow queue? It would certainly make Duff have one of the best views in the park.

 

[Allen The Actor]

I personally hope it all ends up being completely unrecognizable and they completely take advantage of the space, which it looks like they're doing.

And I agree. I hope the view from Duff will be nice.

 

[William]

I still think Luigi's will be inside the food court. It would be brilliant of them to take advantage of that whole spot solely for Duff, especially because it'll be popular.
