Construction across from Old Key West

[luv]

It's a hot box for people who behaved badly in the parks. (I have no idea.)

Billboard footer? 30' x 30' would be way to big though..we need photos!

I'll try to get some tonight. Guys were climbing on it. It looked like a jungle gym for construction workers. Maybe 30 feet is too big . At least 20.

We saw it a couple of weeks ago when we were there. It has no doors or windows on the three sides that are visible from the road - as others have said it is a giant cement box. And it is only about 20 (?) feet off the road. Maybe when it is completed they will put potted enormous generic arbor vitae around it to disguise it, ha, ha, ha! Oh well, it is definitely not being blocked from view hwile it is being built as most things usually are, which is making it even more mysterious.

Maybe it's a very small fifth gate.

Portal to the 5th gate?

Is it some kind of water or sewage pumping station? Maybe some engineer for utilities work can answer that? I know there is that new Four Seasons Hotel being built up there in the back of the property.

Casino!

Got it: Its the foundation for the BAH that they are moving to this new location from DHS. Or, it is the housing for an electricity power substation. Or something in between.

This was my first thought as well, but pump stations and stormwater junction boxes are usually below ground level. Pictures would be very helpful.

Disney's Construction Adventure promotion in California Adventure was extremely popular - you saw what happened to that park's visitation numbers after the promotion ended.

I can't blame TDO for copying them.

That's a big ol concrete box! My guess from looking at the reinforcing is some kind of civil/environmental structure (ie., water/sewer related).

How long has this been under construction?

This is Disney World. They've been constructing this box since 2006. Projected completion date is Q2 2014.

Infrastructure for a 'Disney Springs' fountain/sign, which will be filled by plants a year after opening.

Dude, Florida has a yearly drought. Water features are far more reasonable in muggy SoCal than bone-dry Central Florida.

is this a guess, sarcasm, or do you have knowledge of this?

True Story: Was on the way back to POFQ last weekend from EPCOT and had to pull over here for an EMERGENCY bathroom break.
