Here is the latest photo from @Bioreconstruct on Twitter of the new security structure construction outside of DHS.

This photo is from @Bioreconstruct on twitter. Is that the start of a new foundation beside the current restrooms??? This is where the speeder bike photo op used to be located as well as planters. The original thought was that they were simply widening the path for the opening of SWGE but they...

I may be wrong but this continues to look less and less like prep for a flower bed and more and more like new concrete work to replace the path. They are keeping the flag poles in place which means the height in the center of the circle is likely staying the same and the most recent photos show...

Quite possibly!

Thanks! That was close one

Is this a real spoiler or one of the more common "I'm going to use the spoiler tag for effect" moments? This is very important!

Nostalgia, enjoy it while you can!

The GMR was the thesis for the park the way it was originally intended to be consumed. Disney is changing that thesis so it is understandable as to why they removed it. I enjoyed the GMR and wish they would have updated it or even changed the approach but the GMR (and Universal Studios) was the...

I know that the average lifespan of a steel coaster varies based on upkeep, design and lots of other factors but part of me wonders if RnRC might have a shorter lifespan due to the way in which it was constructed. I'm sure there is a way to replace worn track but is it worth the trouble...

Vertigo isn’t caused in this way motion sickness is though. On to the other issues you raise I think you are putting too much stock into the “if it’s on a track it’s better mantra”. Why overcomplicate a situation that can be managed very similarly to other resort bus loops. In a shuttle type...

I believe what you are referencing is actually sheets of plywood put down to protect the freshly poured concrete from becoming damaged in areas of heavy traffic or areas where trucks or equipment might drive.

Exactly! They are removing "true" sensory imput (from windows) and replacing it with a screen simulating movement a right trun on a bus feels less like a right turn when you cant see the road and suroundings passing you by. The illusion will work well for the amount of people that will use it...

Yes I know FL has a high water table. Yes I know its more expensive to build below grade when that grade is at or below the water table as the walls must be sealed and extra precautions taken to handle water intrusion. I also know this is a highly expensive attraction and may be the most...

You would think if you were going to build a hotel in the park/near the park , now or in the future, they would be more concerned about sight line issues and not less as their recent projects would suggest. I mean building a hotel over the park entrance or over old communicore would put the...

I wonder if you will leave the breifing room and walk directly into the waiting transport ship. I would imagine the illusion would work best if you go from indoors out and directly into the transport ship. This way you don't stand outside and watch countless people load the transport ahead of...

Seems like the exit right? It would flow right into the tram loading area which is on the park side of the loop. The tram drop off appears to be on the parking lot side of the loop.

I don’t know track layout specifics and the space needed for show scenes (if there are any on the track portion in the gravity building) but if sinking the whole structure 20’ down wouldn’t make a huge impact sinking sections of the track might have helped reduce the overall height of the...

Any idea if the improvements at the TTC of the tram stop and the ferry dock means an update of the overall aesthetics or theme of the area? I know it is a common complaint of how dated that area is and how the 90's color scheme has not aged well. Seems like a good time to modernize the look and...

Interesting enough the guys at retroWDW and the LBV Historical Society just put out a podcast where they interviewed the Director of the Timekeeper film Jeff Blyth. He said that each scene in that film cost 1 mil to film, so to go and film another shot of the new New York skyline was probably...

Not to mention it takes a previously symmetrical layout to the space and makes it asymmetrical ;)
