Main Street U.S.A. hub redevelopment at the Magic Kingdom

[Horizons1]

I see that the crane is still by the castle. Are they still taking down lights from Xmas?

Yes.

Concept art had big trees...any big trees sighted? Please?

Man do we need an updated photo walkthrough of the hub. There is more and more vegetation showing in every picture I see. But they are scant and far between.

Calling @WDWtraveler to the rescue!

Was just wandering aimlessly through the Twitterverse and I have noticed several photos now from the hub. One of the them had one of the new fountains in place. The detail on the fountain looked great. We so need a hub update with photos. If only I didn't live 1000 miles away.

Seriously! You found pictures of the fountain in place and didn't re-post? Shameful!

This post is made better by the look on Wilber Robinson's face.

I am ashamed!

Also, still have not figured out how to do it.

It's really starting to come along nicely. that fountain looks nice. I'm really excited to see the final product.

trees, flowers, grass... and you can't see that the river/moat goes into a tube under the "bridge". I like what we can see thus far!

i hope you REALLY didnt think you would see a pipe, a la' nemo, spewing water under the bridge, did you?

I never thought I'd live to see the day TDO installed a fountain.

Well there were quite a few people here expecting something like that or worse lol. Just look at the top of the thread-people were expecting a Walmart parking lot.

can someone please do a more detailed look at the trees and new plants etc?

I'd like to see this too... but we need to be careful what we wish for in this place or we will end up with a closeup of a leaf.

So putting a big box over the Partners statue kind of makes it like a Schrodinger's cat problem. It exists in a state where the statue is both in the box AND away being refurbished.

Only when we open the box will we know for sure.

That fountain install is so they can collect the last of the loose change in your pocket before you leave.

The project seems to be coming together as a real well planned compromise between handling the crowds and shows, while still making the Hub a present place to visit.
