Construction was almost always done during the day on FLE. The construction picture and videos showed plenty of construction activity during the day.

It was my understanding that the louder stuff wasn't. They didn't want to interfere with guests visits.

Hate to feel like this but after so many designs for DTD I'll believe a parking garage when I park in it.

Hey I am fine.....no you didnt say that the project would be completed on time....you PROMISED that they have contracted someone for this and have gone over the completion date....now how could you have PROMISED this if you didnt have an inside connection? So what you are really saying is that your original statement was nothing more the conjecture. As far as me being related to another poster? I call her @Mom but she isnt my mom....
See below.
And get some sleep...or something else and lighten up.Oh, and that is NOT the member I was referring to.

Everyone's getting excited over a shopping center. Unbelievable. Been there, done that.
Anyone recall something called Crossroads of Lake Buena Vista? It's where LBV Blvd ends at the eastern edge of the property. In 1989, Disney build a very nice and huge shopping center there. Despite the fact that they had 100% of it leased out all the time at incredibly high rents (ie very profitable) and despite the fact that it attracted the best retailers and restaurants - the type of businesses that fit right in and worthy enough to be "on premises", several years ago or less, Disney sold the parcel of land, along with Crossroads, along with all the profitable leases that the 100% occupancy rate committed to it. Disney said they sold it to "square off" the property. Stupid, if you ask me. Now they're building another.

Crossroads wasn't very nice, or huge. Downtown Disney on the other hand - will be. That is why a lot of people are excited about it.

Elkus also designed the World of Disney store at DD LBV and did quite a bit of work on the plan for DD Anaheim, in addition to The Grove and Americana. They know the Disney company well.
Good, with a chance of showers.
Believe it. Or them, as it may be.
Downtown Disney/LBV Marketplace is a totally different animal from Crossroads.

Look for Dior, MAC, Trader Sam's, and a couple other stores announced.
I do not believe there will be any kind of event that will be broadcast online. Expect a press release with some details, and then TV spots in local news throughout the day.

Glad to see DTD getting some love. I'm sure this expansion is going to be HUGE for them!
