Magic Kingdom hub redevelopment photo update, as of Friday, Dec 19. Not much is new from last week, however I found this feature on the west side of Main Street, looking back towards The Crystal Palace in the right background.

Taking a guess here...Think it's this looking that way.

Colossus of Rhodes style statue of Iger!
That's just the form for one foot we see in the image...

I was hoping the same thing when I first saw news of construction earlier in the year. Oh well, I don't think a little bit of construction will ruin my trip . Will you be down for the marathon? My girlfriend and I are coming down for the Dopey Challenge, 48.6 miles never sounded so fun!

I will once again do the 1/2 in preparation for the next weeks Rebel Challenge to get my next Coast To Coast.

So much for the trees being cut from the renovation I guess?

Lights were being tested the other night. They flicked on and off a few times and stayed on.

It's so sad we take notice instantly of a tree. I swear that was my first reaction too. A TREE? LOL. How sad they've made us expect NOT to have trees.

Looks like we're getting some topsoil added to the site too! Perhaps something will be able to grow after all.

True - but the tree conversation was only built on speculation of posters on here. No one even confirmed that the renderings were inaccurate.

Take it easy folks. Calm down. No worries. This is not a tree. You should all know by now that when projects take this long in the Florida weather, the weeds can and do grow out of control. This one simply hasn't been run over by heavy equipment or pulled yet. So no need to get all worked up. It will be gone by the time the walls come down!

But now where will I park my stroller? What's next? A shrub?
