Overview

• A Universal spokesperson said “in the coming months” there will be construction activity in Lost Continent as part of site planning for future developments.
• Permit Project 555, filed September 10, details demolition of roughly 4.9 acres of retail, show, and attraction buildings at Islands of Adventure.
• The permitted footprint aligns with the former Poseidon’s Fury and Eighth Voyage of Sinbad facilities, while the Mythos restaurant is not included and is expected to continue operating.
• Universal has not provided a completion timeline or identified what will replace the area, and any reported concepts remain unconfirmed speculation.
• The move accelerates the phased wind‑down of Lost Continent, whose major attractions closed in 2018 and 2023, and comes as Universal advances other Orlando redevelopments such as removing Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit.
