Latest Oct 3 Aerial photos of Fantasyland construction

It also seems like someone has made a conscious effort to expose a fair amount of the construction going on by the new Dumbo and Goofini area. We rode the train and when we stopped to get water at the old Toontown station you could see a lot. The green fabric covering all of the other fencing was mysteriously missing from the top portion of a long stretch of the fence just past the train station. I don't know how long it has been like that but it seemed odd since they have gone to such lengths to conceal it pretty much everywhere else. :shrug:

I noticed that as well on my ride around. I was thinking maybe it was because of the torrential downpours that had happened and maybe it had just been so strong that some of the netting had fallen down. It was pretty cool to be able to see as much as we could though!!

Does anyone know if the tents will be moved back a bit or are they staying put? With these latest aerials it doesn't seem like they are leaving much room for the Casey Jr. water area. :shrug:

I can't see them moving the tents, that would have required completely dismantling them, and pouring at least part of a new concrete floor. If they were going to do that they would have started already. There appears to be plenty of space for the play area in front of the train station.

Here is a comparison of the latest aerial photo along with the concept art and original model. From the art and model it looks like that building will entirely block the gap, unless they have changed the plans.

Don't think anybody else said anything about this, but notice in the construction picture the castle tower turret on the corner of the building above gaston's Tavern....and in the model picture it shows rock work covering that part of the building....Design detail change?

It might have been a change. The picture is of the very early model before the changes were made to add the mine ride and remove pixie hollow.
