Question: When did they install the FLE model, in comparison to when it was announced? If it were installed at the time it was announced, knowing that an announcement on HS is imminent, this could very well be what it is... If so, who knows, they may even through in the Avatar and Disney Springs model too!
When they hold the HS press conference, they could open all these models up for display and brag about all the building going on at WDW. They did something like this when AK was announced and opened displays of models of everything being built at WDW at that time.

The model went on display May 16th, 2012 less then 6 months before the bulk of new Fantasyland opened and long after the initial announcement.

Man I hope so. I've been drooling over the few photos for over a year and want to see the model BAD.........

The Disney Speings model is very disappointing. It's nothing like the Fantasyland model. Just a bunch of blank building structures. Remember the majority of the tenants still haven't been announced. It's a very generic model and not the level of details you saw in Fantasyland.

Didn't it light up or something during the media preview?

It has some sort of digital projection on it but still doesn't have that wow factor like a new land with a mine train mountain does. Unless they have a newer model, but I would doubt it.
Permit filed for room rehab at the Boardwalk Villas...
Villas Room Rehabilitation - Guestroom Rehab
Also an interesting one for Epcot. It's for installation of a "communication system", but the work area starts behind the Japan pavillion, goes cross the lagoon connecting the three islands, and finally ends up backstage behind Norway.

Do you think it is IllumiNations upgrade related if its going across the lagoon??? Is there IllumiNations RoE controllers etc. above either Japan or Norway? Can't remember where they are located....
A couple web pages I have found say the control room in in the Mexico Pavillion.

Which would make sense as Mexico is next to Norway - explaining why cabling etc. is to be installed to behind Norway. But why Japan I wonder?
I wouldn't necessarily jump to that conclusion. The work area stops at the middle of the Norway pavillion, and Mexico is pretty far from the spot, remember there is an empty plot in between. That's not to say that there isn't some sort of connection point behind Norway.
Maybe the Fastpass entrance for the new Frozen ride is going to be near the Japan pavilion.

Forgot about the gap between the two pavilions, but it does seem to me that it is RoE related...I wouldn't necessarily jump to that conclusion.

Don't joke about the FastPass entrance for Frozen being in Japan! Haha!
Maybe its for the inevitable ginormous queue there will be when it opens! Looking forward to the attraction but not the queues - I can see it getting the way Anna and Elsa M&G did with 5 hour queues!

I know martin said something about the mirrors on the island in his illuminations thread. Might be related since there are mirrors on the islands.

Extension to the Maelstrom track.
Bunch of paving permits filed for the Magic Kingdom and Epcot parking lots as well as around ESPN WWS.

Still no word on paving the Yeti lot in the Animal Kingdom... In their defense they're only at 5 months for a parking lot.

Interested to get @marni1971 's take on this.
I would bet anything it's ROE related....what else could it be? The path is interesting, but comparing the Points of Beginning and Termination to Bing, it appears the path starts and ends at some large fenced in electrical transformer stations. There's one behind Japan right where the line stops, and there's another right behind the Norway show building. My guess is that they're simply using existing conduits that were installed years ago. Otherwise, this is going to be a very interesting Directional Bore project to watch.

@danlb_2000 Posted the permit in the Reflections of earth thread @marni1971 created. This was Alektronic response with marni just after.
