It's an entertainment trailer that use to be behind FOLK at Camp Minnie Mickey. Must be coming back in a different location.

Was that the same trailer that led to all the controversy over the soiled costumes and subsequent legal matter?

Not looking to derail the thread, my only concern was perhaps they were rebuilding it bigger and better to avoid any further trouble. Believe me, I'm not trolling for trouble.

There was a new permit today for "DAK Expansion - Morpho 800AD Pkg 4". The address is 521 W Savannah Circle which was the address of the old FotLK theater. This permit has the default one year expiration

There was a permit last year that also mentioned 800AD and said it was for the Central Energy Plant, although that was at 467 W Savannah. Since 467 is the lowest number address I have seen it makes sense that the CEP would be at south end of the Avatar plot.

Some people have hinted that we might see a floating mountain soon. I doubt that is what this is, but maybe more materials to add on to the pre-existing steel skeleton that is currently standing?

AD stands for Area Development. Not sure what the 800 means.

I haven't paid attention to proposed land layout/design so I'm clueless and guessing for fun but could it be restrooms, Men's and Women's?
They're paying 800 million dollars for 800 watts? No wonder tickets cost so much.
I've often times thought that one time insiders lose their sources or they are no longer the primary source themselves and then they have to either a) rely on weirdos who don't know what is going on or b) make stuff up.

Photo update as of Friday, June 19. From the Rainforest Café rear entrance....some significant additions to the steel structures.
In addition to the "floating mountain" on the right, a smaller structure on top of the building's flat roof has appeared.
Not really exciting, but for those interested.....here is a view from the old walkway to Camp Minnie Mickey, with the construction wall across the walkway, and the back of the Pizzafari building on the right. The restaurant has turned this area into outdoor dining, or a general rest area. A good amount of trees and vegetation has been removed around the old walkway, but a tree line still separates the view to Avatarland.

How tall do you guys think it is so far? 100ft?

He knows a lot of people within the company, so he should have good sources. It's odd. Maybe he misunderstood someone's explanation, or maybe he misspoke. Don't know.

There was a picture recently with a worker up close to the steel. Based on that picture I estimated that the part of the structure visible above the wall was 42' high.

Cool to see the steel on top the show building since that will define the final height and shape of the rockwork that will cover the building.
well when I was there a couple of weeks ago it was about even with the E ticket and it looks about 20 ft taller now so im guessing its close to 100 ft
edit: and remember that portion of the floating mtns is not the tallest section
