A new LED board has been installed at the railroad crossing in the park’s DC Universe section. This was once home to a “Welcome to Rockville” billboard.

A model of the park’s new Family Racing Coaster, set to debut later in 2023, has been installed in a display window at Candy Storm.

The Fender Bender building has been completely demolished, though some components still await removal.

The former home of Fender Bender will soon be the future home of the park’s new Family Racing Coaster.
