WAS THE RUINED BUILDING IN LIVING IMAGE MEANT TO BE THE RUINS OF THE HOLLANDS LAB AFTER THE ACCIDENT?
This is unclear. It is suggested since it s mentioned that there was a fire, and Alec has hidden his formula there. However, the fire is mentioned as being as a couple of years back , not the 10 mentioned in the episode; and the materials of the building and location are all wrong, suggesting it s a separate ruin. Also, if it was the lab, surely Arcane would have looked for and found the formula by now. My guess is that it s a separate building; although being forced to use the building in the middle of the Universal lagoon for the explosion could have put practical limits on what it looked like, in which case, it s most likely it WAS the Hollands lab. If anyone knows the official line, please pass it this way.
