With how quickly they're moving on this, I wonder if this "replaced" the River Country DVC? I mean, RC's plans leaked far before GF, and nothing has happened since. I wonder if it was an either/or proposition, and GF was the "chosen one." :shrug:

You talking about the Fort Wilderness area??? Supposedly some sort of work is going on there, but I cannot confirm as to what exactly...

^Oh. I guess I haven't been keeping up on news very well!

The photos show a new walkway from the WP to GF. Does that mean you can still walk from the Poly to GF?

While the new project is a great thing for folks in the DVC, I can't help but think a little of the beauty of the area is being lost. Oh well.

Agreed. Even if the building wasn't DVC, I'd be upset about its placement...I would've far preferred expanding north or west of the existing GF instead of right on the beach, but I can see why the location was picked for infrastructure reasons.
I'm not the type to think everything DVC is bad. I think BCV and the Villas at Wilderness Lodge were well-executed DVC add-ons, Old Key West really captures that homey, community feel, the Boardwalk is a win-win for everyone, and Saratoga Springs (even though it might be oversized) is better than a shuttered Disney Institute and rotting tree houses. But I have some issues with the more recent DVC developments (BLT, AKV-Kidani, and presumably GF) in terms of building placement and design.
