I'm pretty sure "construction walls expand at EPCOT" is pushing the fundamental limits of reality. It shouldn't be possible.

At the very least, it means something's finally happening with the festival area.

Yeah as annoying as it is, it's probably a good sign that the pace of construction is gonna stay at what we've seen the past few months.

According to a construction update re: Journey of Water on the "other site", the construction has extended into Dreamer's Point......I haven't seen anything to indicate that work has begun on that area yet. Can anyone confirm? Would really like to see World Celebration construction pick up steam.

I just checked the article. Pretty sure that sentence is meant to say that the current construction zone also includes the area that will become Dreamers Point, not that any additional work is currently visible in the area. Anecdotally, I haven't seen anything new happening in that area at all from photos I've seen, and if the original plan is still in place, it'll probably be really obvious when things start happening there since, if I recall correctly, they're supposed to be modifying the exterior of the area Project Tomorrow occupies. That could easily have changed, though.

They had to put the walls they removed from in front of Guardians and Connections somewhere.

I loved those bathrooms, nothing like taking an afternoon dump in low traffic bathrooms with the AC and the innoventions music loop playing

I scratched my head all day on what the hell “world nature” was??

I had completely forgotten about that

"Grass-themed land area". With booze kiosks.

Same. Are we getting Pavilions, worlds? a Future World, a land or Neighborhoods? It is hard to keep up with the design committing to none of it.

I have to say…I enjoy this new look. Particularly that star globe centerpiece.

EDIT: It’s not as ambitious as before but it looks nice at least in my opinion.

 

[IMDREW]

Why not have the same build-style as Connections and Creations? These sharp angles of the new building don't match well with the rounded shapes of the original buildings right across.

Love the Epcot logo in the center, but no more fountains?!

I don’t believe that centerpiece is a permanent installation. It’s just showing a possible look for the festival of the holidays.

I didn’t mind they tore the old building at first…..but now to see this random sharp edged square building…..this is ridiculous.

It changes based on the festival? That could be cool, but it is also seen in the (what I think is the food and wine art) behind Remy. It’s kinda hard to make out though.
