Found a small but slightly relevant DHS permit.
DHS Hyperion Marquee
Looks like they're getting ready for the Frozen Sing-Along and whatever may come after. I'm not a fan of the sing-along but I'm glad this theater is getting used for something other than American Idol.

Yeah - there's a thread all about this and @danlb_2000 posted it earlier:

Last week we had a bunch of permits for electrical installs in various hotel lobbies. This week there were a bunch with the description "Electrical and Fiber Installations Only" for Caribbean Beach, Coronado, Old Key West, Poly, Port Orleans, Saratoga, and Yacht Club. These permits cover the entirety of these resorts.
Permit this week for concrete work in the sitting area behind the Rose & Crown. Expiration data isn't until 12/26 so it sounds like this is something fairly significant.

Dan, can you tell from the permit if it is repair work or more along the lines of an addition?

I know there is a small seating area for the fish n chip shop in that location. they might be repairing and expanding.
It doesn't provide any info other then "concrete work". Here is the area where the work is being done:
Permit from MLC Themeing for Innoventions today. I doesn't say what it's for, so it could be exhibit removal.

Permit for the store that is going into AFI for Star Wars weekends.
AFI Star Wars, 501 Stage Lane - Provide labor, material and/or electrical for construction

I just got these plans.
The building is labeled as a "Black Box" which is usually a term to describe a theatre or soundstage-like space.
Very close to the RnRC queue, over where the Star Wars store pops up in May.

When shopping centers are built, but before tenants are signed, a shell space with just 4 drywalled walls and a ceiling is referred to as a "white box" or "vanilla box". It would make sense for an empty space at DHS to be called a "black box" because they paint the walls and ceilings black to hide the infrastructure, conduits, etc.

Lee is right, "Black Box" is typically a type of Theatre. Tom is also right "White Box" is a term for a shell retail space. H0ar is a great contractor.
I've done black box theatres, white box retail space, and worked on projects with H0ar (as the General Contractor - I'm an Architect), I even did "White Box" retail with H0ar, unfortunately none of those three were at Disney
.
I'd be surprised if a "Black Box" space were simply a "White Box" type space, with Black walls.

Right. More like a warehouse or soundstage

There actually isn't a seating area in the outlined area. That's next to the outlined area. This would be to expand the concrete seating area. The area in question on this map has some grass, flowers, trees, and has also been home to the Winnie the Pooh topiaries for the last few years. I guess they're going to remove that green space for more seating.
