New fixtures flanking the path to the center of World Celebration. Perhaps banner stands of some sort?
The small structure on the right here is now fully clad in dimensional paneling. It will eventually be mostly obscured by trees if the site plan is accurate.
Large trees have arrived in this area, and paving looks nearly complete. Smaller plantings are going in next to the Journey of Water restrooms as well.
More triangular framing ...
Additionally, the Moana meet and greet has some temporary fencing behind it, indicating they'll probably remove what's in front of it soonish. The planters nearby are essentially fully finished, filled with pink flowers.

They need a large fire pit to place Joyful! In. Once they start thier off-key caterwauling Flame On!
If it means what it did for the 50th, then it means a faux iridescence, unfortunately.

I'm having a hard time understanding why anyone would even want an entire building painted with iridescence, faux or not.

Am I alone in never having liked the purple? I don't exactly love the orange going on now either, but the original shade always looked horrific to me.Would be nice to see "something else" get repainted...
I feel like someone's either making something up or misunderstood.

Yeah this is why I’m hoping there’s been a miscommunication somewhere, I really don’t want to see that here. I’m still burned out from the over saturation of it during the 50th.

Don’t you mean EARidescence?!?!
Well, actually, iridescence does make sense for sea water. Waves crashing creates color shifts. And it sparkles!
Hmmm... wonder if they thought about Elmer's glue and glitter...

Nice update! I like these better than most recent ones, which I think were the solid color with a SSE emblem on the top left? Maybe I'm thinking of the new event costume.

Most of the new costumes designed recently finally look like they’re designed for CMs who have to be out in the 100°+ heat and rain. Just a welcome change for them for sure

New costumes are somehow both classic Epcot and 2023-appropriate. Glad someone can thread that needle!

I like that they seem decently mix-and-matchy.

I saw that yesterday. It looked really great. I'm hoping this is an indicator of things to come. The attraction could use a good refresh/repair, especially in the first scenes. That sign was a welcome surprise!

Two weeks ago, we had the opportunity to take the Behind the Seeds tour. If you are looking for a spark of 1982 EPCOT Center inspiration, then it can be found at Living with the Land. EPCOT scientists are presently exploring plum growth in space. The initiative can be found here: Technologies for Fruit Production and Plant Propagation that are Compatible with Spaceflight Conditions
