From shots around the wall, it looks like these trees got added yesterday or the day before. Seems nearly all landscaping not in the immediate vicinity of Communicore Hall is nearing completion.

What I want to know is that that shiny circle in the middle is

A grave marker for the fountain of nations.
Obviously.
It’s not like the haven’t done that before.
I’m pretty sure they trapped Dreamfinder behind a fake office door, Cask of Amontillado-style.

I thought that planter was, if that’s a fountain I will forever call it the splash pad of nations. Im holding out hope that the Epcot logo planter is going to be a fountain.
No exact date but World Celebration should be open December 2023

Walls appear to have gone up around Liquid Layer in World Discovery. Curious to see if it's just for routine refurbishment or if it'll come back with either a new look in the red color family or a design reminiscent of the pavement work happening near Mission: SPACE.

The latest aerials appear to confirm no water feature of any kind at the central planter or the old FON/Epcot logo pavement area. Most here expected as much, but it's depressing the area will be without any sort of calming water features.
The central hub project continues to feels like a monkey paw wish.

The whole EPCOT project feels like that to me. It’s like we all wanted them to fix the park until they started fixing it. I’m just grateful that the hub we’re getting isn’t the one they announced in 2019.
Honestly!
That whole area should look stunning if Epcot does the ground Lighting correctly!
There's is a smaller Fountain going in near Showcase Plaza correct?

It’ll look lovely at night, for sure. However, It seems like the area will be lacking daytime kinetics, something the old FoN offered.
There’s no small fountain going in at Showcase Plaza.

If you look at the 2019 concept art it looked as if they were intending to do more past the point if they had removed Connections & Creations buildings and continued with more trees and lighting to World Discovery side (Future World East).
Jump to the newer art and it's ignored completely..Saying "Were done with that side!"

I feel they'll probably finish up the rework of the pavement at some point. If they do the main path now as part of the redo of Mission: SPACE and Liquid Layer, they can touch up the other sections as they get around to Test Track and (hopefully) the Wonders of Life building. There's really nothing wrong with the landscaping itself.If you look at the 2019 concept art it looked as if they were intending to do more past the point if they had removed Connections & Creations buildings and continued with more trees and lighting to World Discovery side (Future World East).

Yeah it's just the old concrete and some of the planter walls that make it feel outdated.
Hoping for a bunch of benches too, Epcot needs it
