Universal Orlando has filed site development plans with Orange County that give the public its first look at the southern expansion of the Universal Orlando Resort.Filed today with the county for Universal City Development Partners, Ltd. as "Universal Boulevard PD / DP3 Infrastructure DP," for 9649 Universal Blvd, with a case number DP-18-10-356, the Land Development Plan details the paving, grading, drainage and utility plans for the site.
Source: https://www.themeparkinsider.com/flume/201810/6375/The plans describes the site as 541.5 acres, including 5,089 provided parking spaces. The site's maximum allowed building height is 400 feet. There are 135.38 acres of open space required for the project, and the planned development will include 100.72 acres of asphalt area and 1.4 acres of sidewalks. Orlando-based Kimley Horn is the engineer of record for the project.
There is a rumour circulating about a 4th park for Universal Orlando and it looks like Nintendo building might be being held off in Universal Studios whilst this new park is considered.
To recap, the Super Nintendo World construction was going to include the Mushroom Kingdom as a central hub with a recreation of Princess Peach’s Castle, a Mario Kart AR attraction, a Yoshi unimover experience, various dining spots and shops and a Donkey Kong Tropical Island themed space complete with a Donkey Kong indoor-outdoor coaster.
There has been no activity since the permits were filed. This is unusual and likely indicative that the plan for Super Nintendo World at Universal Orlando Resort has changed. Credit where credit is due, the folks over at Theme Park University were the first to pick up on this, as well as publicly state that the Nintendo plans that leaked that included Kirby and The Legend of Zelda were outdated by the time they had been uncovered. That’s right, the permits filed in May, June and July of 2017 did not include Zelda or Kirby.Source: http://attractionsmagazine.com/rumor-queue-universal-orlandos-super-nintendo-world-plans-changedSo what’s the plan for Super Nintendo World at Universal Orlando? It’s still being developed, but the intent is rumored to be to transition Super Nintendo World over to Universal Orlando’s rumored third theme park (or fourth, if you include Volcano Bay). A source has disclosed that the Mushroom Kingdom will still serve as the central hub for this third park.
