Looking out my balcony window from Bay Lake Tower and spotted two cranes outside, one near the castle and the other near Splash Mountain. I would assume they're taking the lights down and maybe painting the exterior, respectively?

I heard they are thinking of changing the entrance signs to read:

Steve...Any word or pics on the Castle refurb? Is that even underway yet?

Cool. Can't wait for more, thanks!
Did they fill in the bannister on that staircase on the backside? Never remembered it to be solid. :lol:

LOL I had to double check with a photo to confirm, but there were filled in previously, it's not new.

Thanks, Steve! :lol: It just looked very out of place. Kinda clashes with the airy look of the Castle.

are these the cranes?
They must be quite talented giant cranes at that.
Can you imagine the detritus they leave behind?

Also at BLT. Splash crane is missing today.
WOW. That's a little much.
Wish there was a third one, though...Hello, FLE.

If the look of the FLE site says anything, I wouldn't expect cranes for a long time.

I think we might see one for TLM, right?

No, I'm not saying you won't see any, I'm saying you're gonna have to wait a while.
They were clearing/flattening out the land last week. Foundations mush be done, etc, before vertical construction starts.

True.
And they've started doing site work???? I didn't notice anything going on back there from Toontown or FL last week. They must be working quietly.
And if so, must not need a permit to do earthwork in Orange County.
