Universal Studios Update: Fallon, Fast & Furious, And More

Universal Studios Florida currently has a good number of projects going on at the same time inside this ever-growing theme park. In addition to the two major attractions that are taking shape in New York (Race Through New York Starring Jimmy Fallon) and San Francisco (Fast & Furious: Supercharged), some minor work is being done around Production Central that involve the installation of new metal detectors for the Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit coaster. Let's take a look.

As previously mentioned, some sections of the queue of Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit are currently closed:

This is how the metal detector shelters currently look:



Another small shelter was recently installed nearby. Could it be for the Express queue?




Construction continues in the future site of Race Through New York Starring Jimmy Fallon:

The New York City backdrop was recently refurbished:



Some of the buildings represented look slightly different now:



Notice how some of the windows now appear to have blinds:



The Empire State Building also looks different:

Work also continues in the area that will be occupied by the new Fast & Furious ride:




Not much can be seen from Guest areas at this time:










The existing San Francisco facades continue to be refurbished:




Richter's Burger Co. could be closing soon, according to some recent rumors:





It's time to wrap things up...
