When did it expand to include the building next to it?
Most people know I’m on the critical side when it comes to things Disney is and has done for many, many years. While I did not dine there, the Plaza refurb is one of the best looking they have done in a while. Very well done.

That's exactly the sort of thing that distinguishes WDW from the other resorts. For example, the Mexico pavilion at Epcot has a bunch of visible security cameras:
Honestly, I think it looks worse in person.

I noticed a ton of these at the parks, they don't even try one bit to hide them.

Not excusing them but most of that equipment belongs to entertainment and is for lagoon fireworks.

Fair enough, but I really wish they would find a better way to handle it. It really sticks out to me as the sort of thing Disney is reputed to be very good at concealing, but this is just stuck on top of the pavilion in full view of guests. If it was a temporary solution for a new show that was later properly concealed I would understand, but they seem content just leaving it like that.

I am not the architectural expert at all but IMO the last two buildings towards the right look amazing and fit the era beautifully. The first building on the corner has great touches, apart from this portion which to me looks like newer construction materials trying to evoke an older style (but not quite pulling it off) -
This is a problem with the new poly tower, GF lobby in parts, and some other newer remodels.

All of the decorative glass has been removed and replaced with clear glass (or more likely as @EricsBiscuit noted below, a film that can be removed) - photos from today.

Can’t think of the word rn but these just roll and stick onto glass. I’ve used them before. They look good.

It was only placed there temporarily to obscure the construction.

The removal of the glass “obscurities” is unfortunate. It looked very nice.

But not so much if you are inside dining and want to enjoy the view
