Attractions should routinely close for refurbishment. There should almost never be a time that every attraction in any of the parks is open. Disneys lazy track record of maintaining their attractions at WDW has driven guests to expect everything to be open all the time. Check out a Tokyo Disneyland refurbishment schedule and see how a world class theme park should operate.
It's ALWAYS Tokyo! Why doesn't the OLC Just send advisors over here! Seriously! Oh right It's because everyone thinks they are doing "fine"

Something about the green on the rocks looks... off. Can't put my finger on what exactly, though.
I agree. The algae creep coloration is fine but it's progressed too far up the rockwork. The execution is too clean and uniform. If they'd dialed it back about 50% it'd have been more successful. Less is more. Short of redoing areas, bringing in foliage would help balance it out. It's comparable to real life but it's still jarring.

If someone told me the rock was hulking up I would think of the wrestler/actor but this is not what I had in mind. That is a lot of green and yellow. Reminds me of my pool right now after the hurricane. That rock looks like its badly in need of algecide. I would actually be concerned about getting splashed with that water. It looks really nasty now.

I think that may be it - It’s too high up the rocks. Half as high and it looks great. Where it is looks like amateur hour. It should be much lower to the waterline.

Feels like they are "painting" what would actually happen without regular maintenance to clean off the algae and mold. Maybe this, and the new pavement is a way to hide lack of maitenance in a "themed" way
