Universal Files Permit for 'Future Attraction' at Epic Universe

Overview

• Universal Orlando, in an Orange County permit disclosed Tuesday, identified a “future attraction” called Project 680 with site work at 4700 W Sand Lake Rd tied to Epic Universe.
• The scope lists mass grading and utility connections and reroutes, which means crews will level land and move power and water lines before any building can start.
• Project 680 is a new internal code that industry trackers say appears separate from previously filed Epic Universe work, though the permit does not pinpoint an exact on-park location.
• WESH reporter Shane Winsten highlighted the filing and noted this was the first recent permit to use the word “attraction,” signaling a shift from generic infrastructure paperwork.
• Universal has not announced details or a timeline, but leaders have said Epic Universe was built to grow, and Comcast has linked added capacity to higher attendance over time.
