WDW's audience has changed over the years. It is now a permanently gnawing and drinking mass of human bulk. There is enough increased appetite to add instead of replace f&b places.

I have to say, you're taking this very well. When you found out about Starbucks taking over the Main Street Bakery I'm pretty sure there were some casualties...

Eh, no point in repeating oneself. At some point one has exhausted all there is to say about Starbuckses being introduced into themed environments. Besides, much of it was directed against the misinformation and hysteria that led to such Orwellian doublespeak as 'MS Bakery to include Starbucks products'. We now call a spade a spade and simply name this for what it is: Starbucks to HB at DHS. Instead of 'L.A. Prop Cinema Storage shop to feature Starbucks products'. Reason always wins out.

MTE, it's probably gonna be themed to that. Would love to see a real working trolley at DHS, though.

A look over the fence at the Starbucks construction area at Hollywood Studios. Not much to see, but they are pouring a new concrete pad outdoors. Appears to be low "barrier" walls in line with the store front next door, to separate the sidewalk from the Starbucks waiting area. Photo as of Friday, October 10, 2014.

Starbucks' Trolley Car Café at Hollywood Studios. Photo updates as of Tuesday, December 16. An "over the wall" view of the front entrance. The low wall and fence implies that a seating area will be separated from the sidewalk. Inside, the counters and overhead lighting are being installed.
Detail on the ironwork entrance roof. You can see "TCC" on both center pillars which matches the name "Trolley Car Café."
Overview of front.

A few daytime pictures of the Trolley Car Café building at Hollywood Studios. Photo update as of Tuesday, Dec 23. Not trying to "upstage" 'pug' at all. Just adding some detail to his wonderful pictures which alerted me to this opportunity.
Is the "Pacific Electric' sign at the top of the building leftover from the original building?
Full construction walls still surround the back of the building and the awning over the old Cadillac is still there.

Hollywood Studio's Starbucks photo update, as of Saturday, Jan 10. The front of the building looks the same. In the back, the construction wall has been removed, revealing about the same presentation as before the shop closed. The awning is still there, but the Cadillac is gone of course.
A close-up of the rear door, which won't be used by guests, because it would lead right into the cast member's work area. See next two photos.
The side windows were uncovered, so here is a view of the inside.
The last side window looks right into the back of the service counter.
