That you are correct and though people view it as unnecessary etc. the final plans look amazing.

So there will be no need to walk through the park blaring this from a boombox and singing along?

I'm disappointed in all of you...no crude photoshop color coded version of what the area will look like after the construction? I for one welcome this if it improves flow from Main to AdvLand. Been stuck there at least twice in the past 5 years and it is not fun especially with kids.

I'm sorry to report that the place that you like to watch Wishes from no longer exists. This area is being re-developed purposely to create new traffic patterns of guests in areas that are impossible to see the fireworks from. (With the strategic placement of new trees and walkways.) Expect the project to open up more of the Hub to watch the show from, however. The areas surrounding the Hub though, are another story.

If you're saying what I think you're saying-- they're making it hard or impossible to see fireworks from areas where you're supposed to be just passing through while maintaining or improving views from the areas where you are supposed to be watching from-- that's pretty darn smart, actually.

Bingo. I agree... I just worry that they will not do a good job of blocking the view of the show (a very difficult task to begin with actually) from the paths.

This is a good thing I think in the long run. During the Christmas party last year, they had tape on the ground where you couldn't watch so people could get through and yet people continued to camp out in those areas leaving CM's to continually tell groups to keep moving.

Hey, just plant some mature trees on Main Street.

I will take it! any update is better than no update at all!

EDIT: Does anyone think the size of the trees on either side of Cindy's should be cut down and replanted? I think they are starting to make the castle look small due to their size.

Is this effecting Tony's at all?

Amazing, as in "Wow, it's amazing how many extra people they cram around the denuded hub, and gosh, look what a clear view of the fireworks we have!"

or "Wow, its amazing how beautiful and picturesque the landscaping and trees are?"

Serious question.

I'd say both.

I'd say both.

Of course.

I haven't been following to much. Is there a estimated time frame all the hub construction will be completed? Also will the parade route through the hub be different when its all completed?

 

[Jimmy Thick]

I personally would love to be a fly on the wall in the think tank for these refurb discussions. How they come to solutions for the congestion after the fireworks/parades would be worth the price of a MK ticket itself.

Jimmy Thick- No congestion ever? I doubt it...

Since Tony's is on the entirely opposite end of Main Street, I'd hazard a guess and say no...

Ha and correct. It's not that bad besides closing Casey's.

I had no idea where Tony's was on Main Street. That's the reason I was asking.

Here ya go, based on the pics.

Isn't the majority of the area going to be the expanded outdoor seating for Casey's? I know it's taking the place of a prime Wishes spot, but Lord, Casey's needed more seating! It's a park favorite and nearly impossible to snag a seat even during non peak eating times. I'm all for it so long as they salvage some trees and add in some pretty green space around it.
