Interesting to see how empty the hub is whilst JoW is jammed packed!

Not a commentary on the hub (MK's hub is also deserted in the middle of the day).

Test Track is closing June 17th for its overhaul. New concept art was released this morning with a replacement for the current canopy and a new entrance sign.

Where was the artwork released? It's not in the usual Disney channels that I can see.

Sheesh. What a way for me to look unhip by not following their 'gram.

(Which I had been doing but stopped because they didn't keep it up to date and whatever they posted there was simul-posted on Twitter and their Blog.)

It's such a gorgeous area!! Now one of my favorite spots in the park whereas I used to run as fast as I could to World Showcase.

When I first saw the photo and started reading the title, I thought it was WoL!

The past few times I’ve been to EPCOT, the central logo planter ground lights have not been even turned on.

What’s the word on the former Wonders building??

It's a big empty building now for the most part, no active work in there in years. Also the dome roof still leaks lol

Since The Odyssey was mentioned, I'd love to see it transition into a buffet-style restaurant that would highlight cuisines other than what are currently represented in World Showcase. Monday could be Greek night, Tuesday Thai, Wednesday Indian, etc. They could even incorporate a character experience with them dressed in appropriate costumes to match the country's food for the night.

Yeah, can you imagine it.....

Also the dome roof still leaks lol

That’s a major problem for future developments in the building.

Four or five more roof replacements should fix that.

That looks awesome. Unpopular opinion but i like this way better than a refurbished communicore version would look.

I wonder how strong winds will sound going through it during hurricane season even if it makes any sound..

Will anyone be there to hear it?

I just did 3 hours of yardwork listing to the Pinar Toprak score on loop. It’s really a beautiful composition with so much to enjoy. Feels very Epcot.
