A few shots I took today.

I wonder if they are going to cover up the IASW building anymore? Seems like backstage buildings are a constant eyesore for this project

Scuttle,

Keep in mind from these vantage points, there will be a mountain in the way as the Seven Dwarfs coaster is built up.

Thanks for the pics!

A few more.

Almost forgot the pathway pic.

I worry about this new pathway. It's going to be very difficult to hide the view of the Haunted Mansion from Fantasyland given all that they have removed. I'm sure I should wait until the project is done, but sightlines in general in recent Fantasyland work have left something to be desired.

It looks like people will be able to walk on the castle wall. I doubt they will let guest up there but I wonder if they are planning any shows where characters will be up there performing.

I actually don't think it looks that bad from Fantasyland through the trees. :shrug:

I don't think it looks bad either, but I kind of like the way it used to feel as if the Mansion was sooo far away from everything. This reinforces actually how close it is to FL. I'm trusting that it'll all work out though. I loved Tangled and am anxious to see how they will incorporate this into the area. I wish some concept art would leak out.

I only have problems with backstage buildings showing. Im sure thay have it all worked out. Anything else is not a problem.

I mean look At HM back in the day:

Oh wait I see IASW!! AHHH!!! Disney has always done this!!! Oh the humanity!

thanks for the great pics!

Just left WDW and was really impressed with the quality of the work in Storybook Circus. Although I would have preferred a few more attractions in the FLE, it looks as though the entire expansion is going to be incredible. Going back in 6 weeks and can't wait to see the progress.

Actually the building that you are seeing is the HM show building.

Just me? Or does the 2nd Dumbo look like it has a lot of work left? I dont get how its that far behind the other one. I would hope they would try to make sure it's complete by June to help summer crowds. Being in construction and knowing how phases like that can go, i just find that a bit odd.

Scuttle, thanks for the new pics!

 

[gaga4disney]

Great pics!, thanks.

Your welcome guys. I'm lucky enough to have been born and raised in Orlando, so why not take some shots for you guys that aren't as lucky when I visit right?

I would think that they would want to try to get as much done with the land as possible, as quickly as possible. If this means delaying the second spinner so they can get more ground/areas open to suck up the crowds then maybe that isn't such a bad plan.

Course maybe the second spinner will just get left in yeti mode! :drevil:

Anyone know how tall the new sdmt mountain will be? All 3 mountains in mk are about the same height.....
