I don’t think so. I definitely can’t see any buildings outside the park from aboard the Mark Twain. Unless someone held a really long stick up really high from the top deck, or something like that...

That’s because it’s not Disneyland’s. That picture is of WDW’s GE.

Somebody has got to make up their minds. One says it DL another says it WDW. It looks to far advanced to me to be WDW. But, I'm not there so I'm just going by the last pictures I saw. Hopefully we can get some solid verification before a few people have an aneurysm. There seems to be some disorder in the force.

It’s WDW.

Can you explain what we are seeing the background? WDW's isn't using tower cranes so they would have to be working on a different project but I don't see anything in that direction that they could be working on.
Isn't that construction of new towers in Bonnet's Creek?

Yes, if the picture was taken from World Drive then we could be seeing Bonnet Creek and Riviera.

The crane and structures in the background are off property. The building on the left is the Orlando World Center Marriott.

I've never seen a hotel with such terrible pixel alignment. Doesn't look safe. I can see why they needed a crane around it.

The picture wasn’t taken from Hollywood Studios.

On the most recent Disney Dish podcast, Jim and @lentesta discussed Alcatraz and spoke seemingly in known aspects of the attraction. I know at one point it was discussed that there would be a disembarkation of the ride vehicle but that seems to have been dismissed. They did however indicate that the second part of the attraction would feature some sort of augmented reality helmet. Has this been discussed by anyone else?

Great new aerial photos from Blog Mickey. They get a few angles that bioreconstruct doesn't usually. You can see some progress of the building theming and Falcon foundation.
New 3D model of Orlando's GE as well.

Well, I was pretty sure that this ride would require 3D glasses. I suppose it wouldn't be a far stretch to require guests to wear a helmet.
Still, this is cutting edge stuff that, as you look at other tech companies' AR offerings, really ISN'T ready yet. Yes, I want Disney to push technological envelopes, but I don't know if I trust them to do AR right. I sure hope it works reliably and convincingly.

Nothing like bring home a healthy case of lice. I'll pass on the helmet.

Note item 11 on the 3D model it’s location and it’s correlation to the hotel.
I'm not sure what you're saying here. #11 is part of the queue to Battle Escape. And it's not nearly as close to the hotel as is behind #6 where Martin has already indicated where hotel guests will be entering.
