Universal Studios Orlando- Diagon Alley Construction

 Wizarding World of Harry Potter-Diagon Alley Construction- Scaffolding comes down.

 Orlando Theme Park News has some amazing new photos up of the construction at Universal Studios Orlando and their newest project- Diagon Alley.

 This newest addition which has raised up with shocking speed is replacing the former JAWS attraction. The area will feature both Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley from the Harry Potter books and is Universals newest addition to their "Wizarding World of Harry Potter".

 While it looks simply lovely up close, something about this bothers me.

 Orlando Theme Park News is rather famous for having some amazing panoramic images from the theme parks but looking at this one, the flow is bugging me. It doesn't seem to fit, like to much is crammed together with too many styles. I understand their trying to convey London into a very small space, and maybe it IS just me, but I think this may look nicer from across the lagoon if the outside was more uniform.

 Either way, for more photos of the construction of Diagon Alley go check out Orlando Theme Park News. They always have excellent photo updates!
