How long has it been since the rock work got some TLC? Genuinely can’t think of it ever getting some love.

I still don’t understand the idea about the full running loop around the Lagoon. This flies in the face of pushing security away from the MK entrance. So to run the loop you’d have to go through security, what, twice? Seems like there’d be little to no ROI on building a loop path with the...

To be 100% honest I didn’t think they’d theme it this much. The dining areas are stunning and the tower serves its purpose. If you want the sprawling resort style experience you ask for Cabanas or Ranchos, both of which have a completely different feel. If you want the urban yet quiet experience...

Tell that to Space Mountain.

Apologies. I meant they face “away” from someone viewing the map, similar to how you view the Chinese Theater below.

It’s funny you bring that up because you can start to see which windows on the new facades will be lit and which will be fake. Those with holes in the sheathing should be lit and those fully closed will probably be fake (Its easy to cut into the insulation though).

Nice to see the work on the existing facades is now underway. They all could use a little sprucing up to make them look more ‘lived in.’

This also plays into light and shadow play. The lands are oriented differently. Anaheim has the majority of buildings with southern exposure and in Orlando the land is flipped, so the sun will rise over the RotR forest where it sets over the same in Anaheim. Pictures of the same elements and...

What sections on the west side were renovated? Didn't hear that they were doing work on that side.

Currently it's illegal to plant it in the state...but talk about a cheap groundcover!

I’m trying to figure out the guest access driven phasing on this. I wonder if they take out the monoliths, fill them, then reopen those areas. Once those areas become guest access, they rip out the central bed (and it’s irrigation and electric hookups) and construct the new beds, tree allees...

Completely forgot Tough to be A Bug. I’ve always kind of spatially separated ToL and the show for some reason.

Knock on every piece of wood in a lumber store - but of all the attractions in WDW I think SE may be slightly protected, since it’s a park icon. They don’t assign IP other than Mickey to other major icons - in a way it diminishes the power of the icon if it’s assigned to something. (I’m not...

Literally everything I’ve seen tonight - with ride plus-ing and new castle projection - looks just like a MNSSHP with no candy and a new show. I guess the thing that irks me the most is the timing - it’s June. Way too close to the start of the Halloween parties. Just reads like an extension. Do...

Guessing the grid of foundations are for the columns in the glass observatory-type building? Interesting to see that the actual walking space isn’t that expansive - will make the area feel more urban, which is a good thing.
