It's been years since I've been to FW, so my initial thought was that it could be used as an expansion for campsites, but I'm not sure how far it is from the rest of the campground.
As for POP, would those buildings be able to be salvaged since they've been left to the elements for all these years?

Zoom it out a little and you will get the idea where it is.
That was my first thought too. It's not difficult at all to get in, or it least it wasn't as of a couple years ago. Now with all the photos online, Disney has probably figured it out and made it more difficult.
Combined with the fact that I'd imagine construction/demolition work is cheaper now then it was 5 years ago, perhaps Disney figures they've got to demolish it eventually, and the cost will likely be higher in the future.
Probably won't happen, but here's hoping.
Tease!
Labor definitely is cheaper right now. Every section of the building industry is incredibly cutthroat at the moment. In almost every project we bid there seams to be at least one company willing to do the job at cost just to keep the lights on. On the other hand building materials, lumber in particular, has spiked in price as of late but that will make little difference in a demolition project.

I can also vouch that there has been some back of house restructuring for the Legendary Years to open at Pop Century within a few years.
Any word on if they will be primarily suites?
I would imagine so there aren't that many value level suites to my knowledge?

No idea. It would make sense seeing the popularity in them at the All Star Music. The existing structures at the Legendary Years site will be demolished, so all suites are not out of the question.
I'm also guessing that most of the back of house work will involve building dedicated facilities for the entire Pop Century resort, because as of right now they are utilizing the Caribbean Beach ones.
Do you have a link to that JT?

Unfortunately I have to leave. Just search his site. 'pop century' should work.
Later.
