The Space Mountain area could simply be the pressure washing going on around there that looks like smoke. Speaking af Space Mountain is that green lighting???
The Toontown area I am not sure of. There were some scissor lifts spotted there about two weeks ago.:shrug:
There are folks walking around on the roof of SM today. Gives me the vertigo just watching 
the picture i took last night didn't really translate in the morning. Whatever all that smoke or mist is I think it's off property because it's WAY behind toon town. Oh well, I'm a fizzle

What you see way back behind the park is coming from the steam/chiller/power plant in the northern service area. It's often giving off steam/vapor of some sort, though it's probably more noticeable in the cooler air at night.

Sometimes there is fallout from the fireworks that can ignite some brush in backstage areas. They have firewatch CMs keeping an eye out for this and to call in help if necessary.
In the Fantasyland/Liberty Square area they have sprinklers watering down the plants, trees and building roofs that are within the rooftop pyro fallout zone.

Coming into Fantasyland from TTF yesterday, it looked like there were some construction site trailers and lifts behind Pooh's playground.

They said construction will begin in 2010. Where did you get this piece of info?
EDIT: What are the lifts for anyway?!?!

I think he meant not to expect to see construction from *inside* the park for 12 months... There's a LOT of stuff that'll be built but hidden behind the berm at the back of the Playful Spot... At the most, you *might* see a little corner of something if the angles are *just* right over the backstage gate near Pete's Garage in Toontown Fair.
As for the lifts, they're just generic high-reach lifts, they can be used for any range of maintenance work. In construction sites it's common practice to park them with the boom extended upward to more easily secure them from unauthorized usage, but perhaps maintenance needs to realize they can be seen from inside the park and should be parked in the down position or somewhere else...
