These plans were filed by Universal Creative with the South Florida Water Management District. On the plans, the project is labeled as 'Project 722', the long rumored name given to the expansion.

HHNRumors.com then did some research and found some people listing Project 722 as their current project and see if you can tell what they all have in common:

Universal has not yet announced the specifics in this expansion of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, but rumored attractions include Diagon Alley, a Gringotts Bank ride, Leaky Cauldron restaurant, and other walk-through experiences.

Also rumored is a real-life Hogwarts Express train that would connect the existing Wizarding World of Harry Potter in the Islands of Adventure theme park to the former Jaws area in Universal Studios Florida, by way of areas that are currently backstage and inaccessible to park guests.
