Ooh, they're starting to pave Storybook Circus!
Thanks for the photos!

Some of the few things I noticed:
1. They are starting to add the themed paving by Belles Cottage.
2. They are finally creating the building between Beasts Castle and Mermaid that is part of the Gastons Tavern area.
3. Interesting how they are expanding the construction wall as they pave Storybook Circus. It gives us a good idea of how the other sections will be blocked off come March.
In the first picture, right behind Barnstormer and on the curve of the speedway is that a new section with a planted tree? It looks like fresh mulch or something?
And Im surprised they haven't gotten the other two tops to Erics Castle up yet since the other ones went up almost overnight.

Quick Question: Why are the two sides of Dumbo different colors? Have they just not gotten around to painting the other side?

It will get painted. Dont worry. They are probably waiting till they get the ride base set.

To add to that, you can also see more of what I believe are "footer frames" at the mine train site. It seems likely that the footers for the coaster are going to be poured very soon. Which also likely mean that supports will likely show up around early summer.

It's funny how excited I too was to see new pathway pavement. Makes it more "real" to me. :lol:

They still have a lot of walkways to still do. Somebody better kick it into a higher gear since opening day is less than a month away!
They still have not even started to cover the tents yet and it looks like they have been adding some more support structure to the tent frames.
Then there is a lot of landscaping to be done at some point before opening.

Great pictures as always. Has anyone noticed the hidden Mickey on or near the LM show building or queue structure? It appears to be some rock work or maybe small pools to hold water. Can't quite tell from the perspective, but it is definitely a Mickey shaped formation. I think that it is nearest the tavern, but not sure what the next building actually is or will be. Image #4 of 4 on this thread show it the best. Look at the very right side on middle of the picture. What do you think?

These are great pictures, thank you!
I wonder, though . . . could we get them in higher res? They are so crisp and clean, I just want to zoom in and check out the small details . . .
If not, they are still great!

If you go to Scott Keatings' web site he has super-high res versions of all his photos, although as of this moment (11:30 EST, Feb 13 2012) he doesn't yet have this latest bunch up on his site yet

Thats my guess. Just in judging by the frames on the foundation so far.

The building that's attached to Dumbo's queue, in between the Speedway and Dumbo... will that be removed at some point? It seems like it will be hard to cover up, and I'm not really sure what purpose it's serving/will serve.

I think that it is interesting that the one bridge leading into the resturant is basically a walled off area for the resturant. Do they expect the lines to be that long?
It looks like from the resturant you have to walk around an use the other bridge to get to the village. Unless there will be an inside the "mountain" path.

That's a preminate building. My question is, what will be inside that needs such a large building?
