It has some minor burn marks on it's sides but it is still intact. Sadly, town square is no longer standing I also did see that the clockhouse tower is doing quite well.

I walked down New York street as it lie in ruins. It was really creepy. I left the backlot about an hour ago and I still smell like smoke. My shoes have tar on the bottom and at one point I experienced shot breaths. It got kind of scary. I'm quite saddened by the event, but I'm sure Universal will rebuild quite soon.

But to their defense they got one truck and a bunch of old dudes (it's a retirement station.) Ya know they lost the historic "Phantom of The Opera" way back in the day and this one twice now. Maybe the need to go on Backdraft and listen to Ron Howard tell them how dangerous and unpredictable fire can be.
