The circles are more than likely just piles of dirt they didn't have time to remove. The plastic is there to keep it from turning into mud. I'm sure the piles will be gone in a day or two.

I think this was one of the first pieces of concept art to be released and at that time I'm not so sure a Food Truck park had been planned yet. On the other hand, I'm not so sure this will even end up being a Food Truck park.

Food Truck Park update, photos as of Saturday, Sept 20, 2014. The signage/posters on the construction walls have all been updated to "Coming Fall 2014."

looks very congested with all of those trucks in such a small area tbh. I'd prefer the teal truck in the middle not be there.

I was surprised to see the Rainforest volcano wrapped in scaffolding. It's been less the two years since the finished completely re-building it.

interesting, hope they aren't dumbing it down to make it match the "disney village" theme

A couple of Downtown Disney construction updates, pictures as of Saturday, Sept 20, 2014. First, a new construction wall has appeared in the courtyard between Fulton's Crab House and Portobello. Previously, this area was completed and open. Second, a construction wall has appeared around two thirds of the back of the audience seating at the West Side Stage, which also surrounds the production/control booth.

Disney Springs construction photo update as of Saturday, Sept 27, 2014. Demolition of the Plant Hollywood Store taken from the upper level of Planet Hollywood, with parking garage in the background.
Courtyard construction in Westside in front of Splitsville. The circular areas are plastic-covered dirt after all.
From balcony of Splitsville, here is a view of the "Food Truck Park." Three concrete planter or seating walls are in now, with lots of plumbing inside.
The courtyard between Fulton's Crab House and Portobello is largely open now. The construction walls have been moved to work on other areas near the canal or along the "springs" waterway. See next three pictures.

anyone know what this is? the rebar coming up seems too close together to be for an extention of the railroad tracks.
was there anything in this area before? or just trees and a small waterway, that wasn't really a dominate feature at all?

The position and size of the foundations does make it look like they plan to put another section of the highline there.

I was perusing several WDW websites the other day and came across large photo spreads of the DS construction on DaMouse. It is one of the largest collections of aerial photos (from the balloon) and shows the expanse of this transformation. It is pretty impressive and shows the amount of money being invested in this area. There are also a couple of other photo threads showing the new walkway bypassing the Marketplace. The rock work they are putting in is really nice. Also, the brick work on some of the new buildings looks good too. It is definitely worth checking out if you have time.
