Universal Studios Hollywood plans to relocate soundstages to expand theme park

Posted | Contributed by Jeff

Universal Studios Hollywood is embarking on a new five-year plan that will reorient many of its production soundstage facilities to the east near its backlot, as it makes way for additional space to expand its theme park. In the works is a new complex of ten soundstages, to be built in 2017 and 2018, as a cluster of smaller stages on the front and west portion of the lot are removed to make way for new theme park attractions.
