According to this website, Universal Studios Florida has filed a notice of commencement to have a warehouse, known as Building 79, demolished to construct another building, Building 79B, in another area of the park. Where this building will be is not yet clear, but it appears this notice is causing a lot of buzz.

How, you may ask? It's more of the location for where this warehouse is. This map shows where Building 79 (marked in red) is: right behind the Curious George playground at Woody Woodpecker's KidZone.

If rumors are to be believed, both the KidZone and parts of the "Expo Backlot" where Building 79 is will be the location for the upcoming Nintendo Land, meaning that Marvel might be staying at Universal after all. So far, these rumors have not been confirmed, thus they should not be taken as truth.

In my theory, Animal Actors, Barney, both Fieval's Playland and the Curious George playground, and the Sponge Bob store could be completely removed from the park, the Woody Woodpecker coaster might be rethemed (similar to The Flying Unicorn turning into Flight of the Hippogrith and Dueling Dragons turning into Dragon Challenge, both at Islands of Adventure), and ET Adventure could be integrated into the Hollywood section of the park. The problem is ET's entrance is in the KidZone area, so the fate of that ride is mostly uncertain.

In addition, most of the Expo Backlot could very well be part of the upcoming Nintendo World, as evidenced by the demolition of Building 79, since that will open a lot of space for the proposed land.

For those wondering, Building 79 is reportedly part of the seasonal Halloween Horror Nights at the park, and it is one of the haunted houses of the event. 79B will likely be used for that purpose, just in a different location.

Again, I must point out that these are rumors only, thus do not pass them out as truth.

Any other theories on what this might be about?

This already has a topic, another one doesn't need to be created for a piece of news.
