On what part?

Exactly. And some of it is even themed to specific Florida towns/cities, which you never see at WDW anymore.

Not sure what you expect a kiosk to sell that is so revolutionary that isn't cool enough to get a storefront.

I got to walk across the causeway on Sunday, there was so much anticipation. It is truly beautiful and useful, makes going across DTD super easy. I was at the Lego Store with my sons, I was sitting while they were racing Lego they were building. This couple were arguing about weather the causeway had always been there or not. It was pretty funny to hear, he was insisting it has always been there. I think that's what Disney does best, when they add stuff to an existing area, the ability to blend the new with the old is usually outstanding.

What did they charge for that?

I agree that this is incredibly well done. Disney has made me want to go walk across a bridge so badly. lol They are good!
Here is all the pricing http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions...-open-on-the-marketplace-village-causeway.htm
Too much! I had one last weekend, they are good, but not great, and not worth the price in either the single or bulk. I think they are worth $2 tops.

That was me too, I couldn't wait to get to DTD so I could walk across the damn causeway. I walked across it and I immediately wanted to do it again. Which I did, I'm looking forward to my next trip, so I can just walk across the causeway.

If people pay $3.50 (or whatever the price is), that makes them worth $3.50 to those people.

Photo update as of Sunday, Sept 6. Two of the kiosks on the Marketplace bridge since opening are now gone: Flour and Sugar cookies and Florida Bath Co. (operated by Basin). In their place, the Duncan yo-yo kiosk was moved from the bridge between T-Rex and Fulton's.
The snow cone and hanging mobile kiosks that were on this side of the bridge between T-Rex and Fulton's were relocated to the other side of this bridge.

Photo update as of Saturday, Jan. 30. As reported earlier, two of the Marketplace Causeway extensions at either end of the causeway have been behind construction walls for several weeks. Based on the plumbing viewed here, it appears new food/drink service kiosks are being built. The below photo was taken at the Rainforest Café end of the causeway, with the construction walls at the other end of the causeway visible in the distance. The large building in the background is part of new Town Center, between the Lego Store and T-Rex Café.

The town center looks like it could open very soon. Any idea when?
