Correct. A lot of that is what was holding up much of the demo. Rerouting power and other utilities that feed other parts of the park out of demo zones before actually doing the demo.

Do you know of anything that is staying that might surprise us?

No not really. Pretty much everything that the "insiders" have stated to be demoed is/will be/in the process of being demoed.

There's quite a few recent SOA demo pics here: https://twitter.com/bioreconstruct
I'm not about to take every single image embed them over here, but if someone else wants to, then go right ahead. Mostly looks like LMA destruction and more SOA facades down (by HISTK play area). Also a bulldozer showed up right near former BLT entrance/facade.

I like the zootopia idea although they would also have to do lots of detail work to make it match the look of the movie as well. It my he movie had lots of detail including different size doors and windows.
I think Star Wars land will be closer to star tours than most people think. The facades that were against muppets courtyard have been removed. Those facades ended at a point that the tattooing facades started. With the removal of this facades they can easily expand
A) the tattooine environment
B) Endor
Since the outside of star tours has an Endor look a transition from lush forest to the rock work of the new Star Wars can easily be worked in.
Muppets courtyard transition can also be created using the same landscape. Disney has done great jobs with transitions before.
When flocks fun fair was built we all wondered how a oversize bugs area would work with the DCA tower.
They did a great job in crating themes walls in the tower side and then breaking up the pathway with a large planter of bamboo and plants. Now the area looks like if it is the hotels garden. From flicks fun fair the illusion of being shrunk works even better with a huge managing tower looming over the small patch of garden.

Its weird to see this as that little red door in the bottom right of the photo was the Custodial closet door which I used probably 200 times. Knowing what was formerly behind that door and above it for that matter it's just really strange to look at.

@danlb_2000 Did you say that both construction sites for the two lands will be working at the same time (according to work permits)????? Lots of progress

If you mean TSL and SWL, then yes, but that shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

Thanks. That's what I thought but I'm getting older and the memory isn't like it used to be.

Oh man this one hurts. I can not tell you how often I looked forward to getting a cinnamon bun at the Writer's Shop and setting on a bench back there and eating it with some coffee. I always thought it was kind of the best place to get a little peace in all of Disneyworld. I wish Disney could make a sort of "Retirement Home" park and just relocate all the attractions they are doing away with in one park to the new Retirement Home park so all of us that love certain things would never have to give them up. LOL!
