Here's the permit for this project: It's described as a "14-story hotel tower in an "L" shape along with a 2 level conference/back of house facility"

The name though. Why?!

Some new permits were filed with the SFWMD for a "Project H" today. The permits are only for borings/soil testing and site clearing, so there's no definitive proof that this is for the hotel yet, but the location is right on the outside of Hollywood Studios/Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, so it's more...

Maybe whoever they hire to fill this position will bring some creative solutions to the table: https://jobs.disneycareers.com/job/lake-buena-vista/master-planner-principal-transportation-planner-engineer/391/4452371 Some interesting excepts (emphasis added): and

Yeah, like Bolt said, these definitely sound like they're going to be parking lot trams, which don't carry ECVs anyway. And like the article says, the state of current driverless technology works best in well mapped areas on simple paths and at lower speeds. We're still many years away from...

My apologies if this has already been posted, but the last several pages have been kind of a mess. New NOC documents were added to several SFWMD permits earlier this week that give us a pretty clear picture of this project's timeline... First, the permit for the station at Disney's Art of...

You're a month early. Or a time traveler.

This project has active construction permits, they're way past the "selecting a manufacturer" phase.

According to the expiration date on this permit, yes, it looks like it'll be ready before the end of 2019:

You "missed it" because that permit is from 2011, and was part of a Fort Wilderness DVC near where River Country was... I believe there's an old thread on here somewhere about it... The reason it showed back up in permit searches is because new documents were recently added to it (the...

Came across this interesting concept art for Morimoto that I hadn't seen before. It's obviously older art, as the marquee on the building says "Springs Bottling Co." now, and the interior shots are a bit different. And just for convenience, here's the officially released art to compare:

VERY rough estimation of where this will be located:

Boo. I was hoping the entire room/exhibit dedicated to Shanghai attractions would be enough to not focus most of a presentation on it.

Those things would be nice, but realistically: 1.) Brief Star Wars details/time frame for both coasts. 2.) Marvel at DL. 3.) Generic DHS News (new name, Pixar place) 4.) Avatar details. 5.) Brief Frozen details. Hoping for more though!

Perhaps a little like this? This is assuming Muppets is staying, Indiana Jones show is out, and Echo Lake is being filled in. All of which have been rumored at some point, no? Of course, with the major infrastructure improvements on the way, its also possible the cast entrance/exit could...

I'm not sure if this would apply to a FOIA request, but thanks to Florida's very broad public records law (quoted at the bottom of this post) an act was passed several years ago specifically preventing people from requesting theme park blueprints from the state...

Hope it's okay I post a quick update in this thread, as I came across a somewhat interesting permit filed with the SFWMD today for "Exploratory Geotechnical Borings" at three locations around WDW's property. From the permit's description, the borings are for new potential roadways throughout the...

Today Disney filed a permit for what I'm assuming is the first phase of the "transportation improvements" coming to the former Driving Experience plot - an expansion to the MK guest parking lot. From the permit: Here's a plan view of the new parking area: And here's a (crude) colored...

Plans for the rehab were finally filed with the SFWMD yesterday. Since these documents are considered public record, I hope there's no issue with posting images from them here. Here's the project description from the Geotech. report: (Page 100 of this document) Illustrated plan of the...

I'm really curious how far along they are with concepts/expansion plans. I'm hoping this isn't an Avatar-like announcement, where they've literally just signed the deal and now have to spend years coming up with attraction concepts. Here's to hoping we hear some more news sooner rather than later!
