Doesn't look too bad. It's kinda like a spliced Innoventions (which is probably the point). Do wish the garden was a little bigger though.

There is:Hmm, I wonder if there's a good Epcot model on Planet Coaster I can play with...

Not everything is to scale but it's something. Enjoy the 20fps!

Looking at this confuses me more. I get they want new stuff but... it's like they're demo'ing stuff just to demo stuff it seems. The CC buildings were designed to be expanded outward so why wouldn't they do that? They could do some other interesting things with them as well (knock windows out and have an open but covered area to get wasted, tall glass walls to view outside, etc.
My head hurts.
Edit: I like FoN and all but I don't mind losing that in exchange for green space. It's the CC buildings that have me confused.

This only raises my concern that the rear of the new Festival Center is very close to imagination pavilion’s approaches. Here’s hoping they figure out how to do all the load-in for that facility via the faux-tilidors or there’s gonna be some ugly loading docks back there.

Just catching up to all of this news. Goodness. Not sure where to even start. Obviously I question the changes that add seemingly more food and drink to a park that is already bursting at the seams with food and drunk. Also really, really wonder how this will be designed.

@marni1971 Are they still going to have a new fountain closer to Showcase Plaza like the initial concept art showed?

What’s funny is that I just made an EPCOT style park. Someone has also made the EPCOT we know Today in planet coaster.

Does seem like the better option would have been to repurpose. Seems odd they went with this one. What's the end goal here? lol

This actually....doesn't look horrible. Certainly much better than the other site's mockup....
But where's the big blue box?

You may want to sit down for this:
I agree with you 100%.
I mean ... a beer garden replaces Fountain of Nations. That just says it all. I've tried really hard to be as positive as I can but this last batch of information just seems like it's a lot of wasted money when in this case they SHOULD be repurposing. They could have still prettied up the area ... I don't really understand their end goal here with this. They're basically keeping all the same things, yet demoing and building ... I really need to see the concept art of the new buildings they want to erect ... D23 should be interesting I guess

Right. I mean, looking at @MisterPenguin's sketch, it looks like it could be OK (minus the beer garden - which I have no objection to the idea of a beer garden, that's just the absolute worst place it could be.... And getting rid of FoN for it??!!).

But why demo the building? Why not modernize it? Spend the money elsewhere (like on fixing Imagination or Seas)?
This one is a head scratcher.

That's my thing with the beer garden. Putting one in a green patch of grass that's unused? Sure. Putting a brewery into Oddyssey? Not preferred but OK. But replacing the Fountain with a beer garden? Isn't the idea to open up space? I'm just a little confused about their plans. Seems like they had a better plan they could have gone with. But beer = profit. Sooo ... I guess instead of a hotel we get a beer garden
I agree on spending the money elsewhere. I mean, I know there's that awful stench in Innoventions, but it seems counterproductive to demo it, and build new separate buildings. I'm just not getting the goal here.
It is indeed a head scratcher.
For every Awesome Planet and re-imagined entrance, we get ... a beer garden in the middle of the center of the park. It's so bizarre to me.

At least the Beer Garden isn't IP themed!
