EPCOT New Park Entrance coming to Epcot

Probably different contracts.

If only there was some sort of entity that one could hire to handle all of the different trades involved in a construction project...

I figured Disney has their own.

Probably not.

Not for large projects. This project is probably being done by Whiting Tuner, one of the US's largest general contractors.

Probably not.

So the same company doing the removal is constructing the new plaza?

Already looks better!! SO MUCH SPACE

Really can't wait for this refreshed entry plaza

Sorry, I though you meant different contractors for each side. It is possible that different sub contractors are handling the demo and construction.

You would hire one general contractor for demolition and new construction.

I would sure hope they could put some temporary plants in these wide open concrete spaces , looks horrible as it is . Very happy the tombstones are gone but some interim replacement is in order

I take pride in knowing that I probably got the first photos of this (well, first with intent of them being the main focus of the image)

I think the entrance looks gorgeous. Saw some photos on the twitter page belonging to @DreamfinderGuy and it looks SO much better without those large stones there.

Heck with the one side wide open, they could now easilly take their time on the other after removal and complete all the work. We all know how the tombstones hindered crowd access, so being able to now re-route between sides would be a dream. Only time will tell. Haven't seen enough info to figure it out. Unless of course, they are also re-shaping the center island. Anyone know if it's sides only or full width re-design?

At long last - an old friend returns. How beautiful!

They could just paint it and it would probably last the few short months until 5hey tear it up again.

Looks so bad having these big white splotches like something is missing.

What's more exciting, this or when the Sorcerer Hat was removed?

I was at Epcot today this evening and it seems that when they removed the leave a legacy they left the lights to eliminate the monuments in the ground. At night they still turn on making the area seem strange with random lights on throughout a whole section.

They could put a flat ride on each side - add capacity!!

Your pictures make it look pretty cool, like a larger version of the fiber-optic blocks.

When are they going to add the headstones to the newly dug plots?

Hard to decide, Leave A Legacy lasted much longer than the Sorcerer Hat.
