Every day it remains is a gift! Though I'm sure it just has to do with construction not moving that far over yet?

Just about everything around the immediate area of the tower has been cleared already.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but why don't they just move the water tower instead of taking it down. I don't know if there's actually water in the tower or anything, or if it would be too much of a project, but I think it would be very cool if it was still somewhere in HS.

less trouble to demo and build new

As the poster above stated it is cheaper and easier to just demo it than to try and move or reuse. Think of when if ever you replace something and you don't need the old part or item....much easier to trash it than to try and be gentle yeah?

The tower does not contain any water. As much as I, too, would love for the tower to be relocated elsewhere in the park, the chances are pretty slim to none. I believe the mindset is that if you are in Toy Story Land, it wouldn't make sense to see the tower. I would be fine with it, but they didn't ask me.
How they plan to conceal a large cast member parking garage near the tower is beyond me though.

Right. The only reason to justify a move would be sentimental value.

I would greatly enjoy watching them pick it up with four helicopters ala "Pacific Rim" and set it down in a new spot...

Maybe Spacex could fly it to a barge so it can be transported to Shanghai or Paris.

What do you know that we don't?? Should we start a "Crane on site" watch thread?

The cost of moving forward is sometimes leaving things in the past. Our first trip to DW was 1987 when our first born was 9 months old. The Earffel Tower was always pointed out on the BLT. But my fondest memory was my kids and I watching my wife in the WWII scene scrubbing the PT boat. So I don't find it hard to let the tower go. I'm more looking forward to creating more memories with hopefully grandkids at TSL and SWL.
