It's going to be great once the ride is revealed so we can see what the layout is, because it really seems like the footers are just scattered about.

No photos, but the supposed station has gone vertical with steel. There is quite a bit of structural steel staged in that area too.

Building the station before any track installed is certainly an odd choice

Duelist

Could it be a pass-thru building for the ride instead of a loading/unloading station?

Time Travelers station was midway complete around this time in 2017. Track and supports didn't start getting installed till the end of May.

EDIT: Found this interview video with the construction manager of another Mack Rides project being built right now here in the states at SFGA. This one will be well over 300ft high and has launch elements as well. Note the technical discussion details and the size of the footers in the background to see how similar this project will be compared to SDC's. I highly doubt SDC's upcoming Mack (launch?) coaster will be that big, but it won't be a snoozer either. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InDGxKbLU3Y

Here's an aerial shot of the construction coming from Kevin Berger on Facebook.

Looks an awful lot like structural material is being staged along the service road beyond the trees from OR.
