I just can't wait to see all of this finished. It's looking good!

Looks like they rebuilt the stairs on the stage... so I doubt we'll see it leveled to a flat stage

18 more days to go and I'll get to see this beautiful monstrosity in person! (Never seen the Castle anything like this before) I've been there 3 times since July 2014 and for some reason the construction this time is bothering me the most...

Was that ever a possibility?

We will be at MK on Sunday 30th August - anyone know if the majority of the construction work will be near completion at this time?

At best the stage construction should be completed and hopefully the two turrets will be tarp free

So from what we're hearing the stage and the ramps should be finished by August 20th? Would the two remaining turrets likely be done at the same time as thats the control booth for DAWM?

The original project was suppose to be done by end of August.... based on what still needs to be done IMHO it looks like middle of Sept for everything to final be wrapped up and the hub project to be completed.

Surface-to-air missle launcher.

 

[MinnieWaffles]

How much will be finished by November?

Ah. The Potter Swatter. Finally.

The permits expire at the end of November so I would expect everything in the hub to be complete by then.
