    February 17, 2015 – Given the rapid pace of construction within the park, we’d thought we’d take a Hollywood Minute to give you a quick update on some of Universal’s largest ongoing projects.

    Let’s get started!

    1 » Sports Avenue Refurbishment

    In a rather curious development, Sports Avenue will be transformed into Locker Room following a string of CityWalk Hollywood changes.

    2 » Wizarding World West

    Taking a brief look at the progress of Wizarding World West, Universal has continued to cover up the Forbidden Journey show building with faux brickwork.

    3 » Springfield Comes to Hollywood

    Finally, construction crews are adding the finishing touches to the Springfield food court. Perhaps the most noticeable addition has been the smoke stacks for the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant!

    That does it for this quick Hollywood Minute look at Universal. Thanks for reading and we’ll see you in the next update.
