On hold? Why? Related to the political upheaval, or for other reasons?

The mall, hotel and arena are moving forward. The theme park portion is on hold.

Any update about that park?

In addition, in December 2012, the Moscow Urban Planning and Land Commission approved the construction of a hotel and business complex in the south of Moscow. The complex is intended to host a theme park for Hollywood's Universal Studios.

The Russian partner in the project will be BIN, and the investment in this single park will be triple that of DreamWorks' three projects — up to $3 billion. Construction is slated to begin shortly.

Universal Studios Moscow site update

Pictures from my balcony, taken on 27 March 2013:

The website is offline. Developer can't pay provider?

Didn't find much, the developer company's website is down http://www.pfk-bin.ru/

I know about the location. I am asking why are you posting pictures of all these buildings? What do they have to do with the Universal Studios theme park?
Why posting pictures from different locations in Moscow as an update on the park's construction? For example what does AFIMALL that's located in Moscow City buildings complex have to do with the project? This is confusing.

I think it's a real project, yes. I would say Moscow is a consumer city. A lot of huge malls here nowadays with cinemas in them. People like to go to cinemas so I think they're going to be interested in Universal. I don't know if there's more info on the project, I'll try to look up.

Since you are from Moscow, do you think this is a REAL project? How likely is it to be built? Are there any news in Russian that go into a little bit more detail or expose more artwork from the park?
