Like many others, I expect the Field HQ to show at Universal sometime between now and opening day.
I believe it to either be back in the Villas, or in the refurbished hotel in New York.
What do you think>

Isn't there already a field HQ in the villas somewhere? Perhaps they're using this again. However, I know I'm not the only one secretly hoping that the refurbishments going on in NY were for them to create a new field office for us! Which would work out great...field office right by Finn's where we all usually hang out anyway haha

It's been pointed out though that location we're hoping on over in NY isn't accessible by wheelchair. That can present a problem for some.

I for one can transfer from the chair as long as there is somewhere to sit inside; however, if I'm having a date with the Captain, then all bets are off.
I've been hearing talk that the refurb was cosmetic, though. Not that I know anyone, just hearing different folks talk. Are there any potential spaces other than the two mentioned?

I've heard there is also potential at SS33. Which is the old movie theater looking building next to the NY public library that the ghostbusters used to perform at.

Isn't there something going on in that building though? Because I remember it being rumored that there was going to be a house there last year but people kept discounting it because of something going on in there....

To my knowledge they sometimes hold special events in there, and the lobby to the SS has nice flooring, so that's why it wasn't used.

If you entered the theatre (Next to the museum in New york) The special events soundstage areas are to the left, inside. On the other side is another soundstage that mostly holds cardboard props.
Reference: On my tour with Rick and TJ, we went through this building.
The old Ghostbusters SS is, to my knowledge, probably the SS that connects to the theatre that, that holds the cardboard props.

I though the Ghostbusters SS is what eventually became Bill Paxton the Attraction...I mean Twister.

Ah, I had forgotten about that show. Thanks for the clarification!

No problem.
I believe that the HQ will most likely be in New York, primarily because the would be closer to the entrance, and most of the houses are near the New York Area.

I also think our new Headquarters will be larger and more elaborate than the 2008 office in the Villas. I think New York makes the most sense, but where will it be: 1) The New York Public Library - there are two lion statues guarding the entrance. This could be an entrance to SS33, but I feel that it would cause confusion with the queue line for the nearby house. 2) The Priscilla Hotel refurbishment - why such a quick project? Also, our very own Spirit Phoenix just sent in this photo from the park. Notice the lions holding the chains that support the entrance.

More reason to believe HQ will be in NY:
Gardens of Allah is smack dab in the middle of the Woodlands. Would be difficult to get to.
RE: the Priscilla. Have those lions always been there?
