I have taken the monorail at night. The rooms are being furnished and decorated and there appears to have been a lot of progress on the interior.

I know this was posted earlier, but I'm too lazy to scroll through 160-odd pages. Can somebody post the site plan for the towers' parking lot?
On a possibly related note, what's all the construction for along Floridian Way, directly across from the tower site? Is that parking? Infrastructure?

I referenced the plans here to highlight the pathway around the tower, but it shows the parking layout as well.

I’m honestly not really sure what your complaint is here

I'm a big defender of this project overall but the giant plastic cartoon character feels very "Art of Animation" to me.

I don’t disagree with that. I think overall this would be significantly better if they just removed the Moana figure.

The real question is how hard will it be to get a reservation for the restaurant. Nothing worse than staying at a resort and being unable to eat there.

I assume this poster is referencing the lack of fun features seen at many splash pads (slides, water buckets, water cannons, etc.)
That said, if I remember correctly the Bay Lake “splash pad” was similar to this. Hit or miss for kids (sometimes they might find great fun in water fountains, sometimes kids above toddler age totally ignore them,) but in keeping with what that DVC offers by way of splash pad. If I were paying Poly DVC prices I’d want at least a slide, but that’s just me.

You can also see in the concept image there is going to be essentially an infinity water feature built into the restaurant. Guests are sitting below the water line.
It seems there is growing consensus the restaurant is at least a success.

That restaurant looks so romantic and lovely.

Yes, the restaurant looks like it could be one of the nicer ones on property in terms of design.
My kids have (thankfully) outgrown splash pad age, but my concern is that in addition to a lack of slides, buckets, cannons, etc, there are things that look like attractive hazards— you have a big slippery surface and then some poles and ropes that bored kids may try to climb, hang from, etc. — where are the lawyers and the insurance adjusters on this one?

Waterfalls....everyone loves waterfalls.... A Polynesian pool with no waterfall is a letdown... even for a kids play area.... I like the infinity edge on the restaurant, but I miss the old Poly before they ripped out the back water features for a useless "Event Lawn"...Disney used to do beautiful running streams and creeks as part of area theming...Even Frontierland had one next to the Shooting Gallery... It would have been nice to have seen some "natural" water features built into this new addition....From what I have seen the pl for the tower will just be a pool...nothing special or interesting....
