They sure have their work cut out for them. Are we in for another five years-long Tomorrowland project?

They have one soft toothbrush that all of the workers are sharing for the cleaning.

Anyone know what that tan section is? It looks like wood paneling?

Perfect, as long as they do it twice a day and remember to floss between the spires.

Super happy to see space getting cleaned! I hope they clean the tron canopy prior to opening and all the press events too. For a new attraction, the canopy is already showing a lot of dirt and grime.

Wait until the summer thunderstorms find it again.

Don't worry, the media will be gone by then.

[James Alucobond]

A large section of the formerly sky blue facade is now tan, not just that small Contemporary-facing test section. Basically, a lot of the TRON-facing portion to the left of the PeopleMover entrance to Space Mountain is now the new color.

This is all very simple: Close MK for the day and only be open at night with all the cool lights hitting the building. No one will see the mold.

All those trees right underneath the arrow are new within the past week or so as well, I think.

Love the blue trim. That really pops

The greige color is spreading. Primer or finished color?

I hope it's primer. I prefer the blue.

I hope it's primer. I prefer the blue.

If it was primer it would be white or a blue tinted white. This is very likely the final color unfortunately.

Wow, they somehow made it look more tacky and 70s than the 70s designers did a giant space cone shape.
