News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

I think they said yesterday or the day before that the olympics would provide an $11.2B boost to the LA economy.

Lol, they always say that.

It all depends on who you put in charge and that person's business abilities.

I am surprised this video was able to be taken. When I was there over peak season they had CMs watching the entire pathway like a hawk.

This video is about a week old, when this pathway was still open to help with holiday crowding, but it's a great walk-thru of the new Frontierland section behind Big Thunder Mountain. This is where the Festival Arena entry and Big Thunder BBQ used to be.

I'm wondering how seamless the pond and old Mine Train tunnel will be with the landscaping along refreshed Big Thunder Trail. It's shaping up to be a little bit awkward right now.

L.A. Has loads of infrastructure which makes
It pretty possible to pull an Olympics off without losing money. There doesn't need to be a lot of investment.

The ROA rockwork that can be seen from Critter Country is being painted.

 

[EPCOTCenterLover]

^^This is exciting! The rock work at DLR is excellent. And it means they are getting serious about that Summer 2017 train reopening.

 

[NobodyElse]

Just add a few more appropriate trees to hide the palms and street lamps and we'll be in business.

Z9 watch starts now!

I think this area will look beautiful once completed.

Looks like they're actually putting the first coat of concrete over the wire/mesh shell (or whatever material they use) on it right now. It will likely be painted later as they appear to be doing over on the Frontierland walkway side.

Surely you didn't have anything better to do with the next half hour of your life...
Here's another lengthy update from our fearless lady videographer!

And just for fun...here's a FreshBaked update from the next day.

I feel kind of embarrassed for the Fresh Baked dudes whenever I watch their videos.

I always watch with sound off to spare my ears.

They really need to mix the audio for the voices in mono.

Statements like "are they jack hammering the dirt?" seem to support your feelings.

 

[Phroobar]

Yeah for the chick. Boo for half baked.

 

[britain]

I don't mind the Fresh Baked guys. I appreciate any footage, and even though they might be saying erroneous things, I'm sure all of us say things that make WDI chuckle for being so far off.

 

[TP2000]

Yeah for the chick. Boo for half baked.

I have half a mind to message her on YouTube and ask her to come here and introduce herself. She's such a wonderful asset to this process, and I think she'd like it here.

 

[Earl Sweatpants]

Ummmm guys?? We got trees.
