There’s finally some sign of activity! Can you spot it?
From June 13:
Now on June 20:
The red pop-up canopy/gazebo is showing that some type of work is occurring near Remy’s as there’s also a fan for people to cool off with under the canopy.
Also there’s new materials under the permanent structure for the outdoor queue(?? — please correct me if I’m wrong). I’ve circled it as it’s not present in the June 13th aerial.
So this begs the question, can we concur that construction has somewhat restarted/resumed on the France expansion/Remy’s?
Regardless, I hope so!

I don't see The Ladder.
I still don't understand why they didn't move the tower? Surely it isn't "that" expensive to relocate?

You’re just shifting the problem to a more noticeable spot, not fixing it. Moving it requires having support beneath. It might even have to be a completely new structure if the existing one does not meet current wind load requirements.

I am guessing it’s not just a matter of moving it from one roof to the other. I suspect there is support structures under/connected to the existing location and to move it would require creating again the support structure under the new location.
Not sure if that's true or not. Seems like it'd be slightly more prominent from the World Showcase side and more hidden from the Gondola view. Not sure. But you might be right about needing to create a load supporting structure for it. I just wonder if it the idea was ultimately scrapped not due to cost, but laziness or time management. I had hoped they'd move it.

What is this from?
It certainly won’t be “summer”.

If you have that view then you must not like World Showcase, in its entirety.

How does one represent the "French Culture" or any world country culture in an easy to understand and digest manner in just a few minutes? Seriously... Of course it stereotypes the culture... What would you actually expect?
Sarcasm on cancel culture.
