No, all construction workers have been sent home for the foreseeable future.

Jim Hill indicated on his podcast this morning that Space 220 screens were successfully installed shortly before the furlough. Wondering if any insiders here have heard the same.

Let’s be honest, this thing has been delayed so many times. It’ll probably open after Rat at this point.

Well technically, they could open at the same time. (If Rat construction resumes for a couple months before the parks reopen)

We're there 2nd week of Dec. Just wondering when the ADR's will pop for reserving? There can't be THAT much left to do in there, could there? I mean there were hiring notices for staff month's ago.

Now that work on Space 220 has resumed, any indications that there will be any external theming—as in, a nanotube cable extending through the roof to a counterweight anchor in space (or something that resembles this)?

I bet you think that CEO job is so close you almost taste it.

You bet I can!!

 

[monothingie]

You bet I can!!

Your bald boss may disagree.

Are you asking if they are going to have a cable leading up into space? ...

Come on. Something that might appear to do so.

Josh, we have been over this before. You will be taking over my job someday, but before that happens, I must complete my mission to make The Walt Disney Company® more timeless, more relevant, more family, and more Disney®.

Clocks ticking Bob.

The answer to both is no.

I mean, theres a 200ft height restriction for starters. So your 'cable to space' is just going to look like a piece of metal sticking up into the air 190 some feet. And that 190 ft metal pole would be FANTASTIC in a hurricane.
