Isn’t that where a kid play area was? There wasn’t much there unless my memory is blocked because I was seeing the oil rigs on WSL from that area and they were so visually jarring.
Adding a building there would be a mistake for traffic flow. IMHO.

"Be sure to check out the all-new mural at the heart of World Celebration to see how many of the 100 Disney characters you can find in the incredible scene. This expansive mural located along the walkway to World Showcase will feature some of your favorite characters hidden throughout the various neighborhoods of EPCOT. "
I'm having a hard time conceptualizing where this is going. Thoughts?

I suppose they could put up a wall somewhere.

“Heart of World Celebration” and “along the walkway to World Showcase” seem to be a bit at odds with one another. If I had to guess, I might say it’s going where the Scentsy Blossoms of Fragrance displays were during Flower and Garden? On the other hand, if the central gardens are actually open by the time the celebration begins, suitable spots might be either along the walkway behind Journey of Water or on the back of the elevated platform for Dreamers Point, right after you exit Project Tomorrow.

I'd imagine - unless the space is finally being used again for this Food and Wine, the walls that are between the former World Showcase Starbucks and Imagination.

in the real world, yes. Disney World - no.
December or January 2024 Is a good guess.

no possible way to wrap these projects by that date...less than 60 days away.... and then the landscaping will need some time to settle before they remove the walls... Communicore Hall is still very unfinished and will need to be complete before they open the space... December seems more on target...or January....

This confirms that the "September 22nd" Food and Wine booths are not integrated into World Celebration (it was theorized that some booths would be situated on the south arm of Communicore Plaza, hinting to an opening date)

Additionally, the previous Starbucks location looks to be the site of "Swirled Showcase"

I miss the old Communicore. And they should have put in the people mover at the upper level of the exterior hallways like it was designed to be in the first place.
