Here are some pics of the parking area directly to the east of the speedway. So if you are entering the mk parking lot it is directly to your right, up against world drive.
Here's a google earth look at all of the areas affected.

it is amazing how fast this is moving compared to typical disney pacing.. I guess they are pretty good at demo
Yes I was very surprised. Large areas are already covered in asphalt too. Looks like those areas just need to marking painted on. Also some light towers are up already as well. Not sure if they were there before or are new.

@Monorail_Red_77, I'm gonna be "that guy" and request that you please refrain from taking photographs while driving a car. I don't want to be the one you crash into because you're not paying attention to the road.

Ok. I'll put you on the list with my wife. I get what you are saying. I agree with your statement about it being a safety issue. For the record. I very rarely take pics while driving. Only two instances here. I only do it in conditions I feel are safe for me and those around me. I also keep my eyes on the road and not at what I am taking pics of. For me it is no different that adjusting a radio or the A/C.

Note that not all of the area circled in red is becoming parking. The new parking is only north of the Mickey pond.

Yes, correct. was just marking total affected area. I probably should have been more clear, sorry.

I didn't want people to start going ballistic thinking they were going to remove the Mickey pond.

It's about altitude and permission - not 'no flying' all together.

Yep, and it even says so at the start of the article, that these were taken from about 3000 ft.

I used to have a link to the TFR page from the FAA site. Short version? 3 MI/3000ft centered over Bay Lake.

So it looks like the trams will be looping or are they going to stripe the old road and have you walk all the way to the tram turnaround? Interesting....

I only looked at the image you posted, didn't click the link until I got home. That's an awesome lens on their camera for photos that clear taken above 3,000 ft. Good for them.
