Isn't this the area already revealed in the TBA scale model? Signage, some magnolias and rockwork. Looks like rockwork base with garden picket fence queue.

Only hint at what TBA's queue will look like right now is from the model of Disneyland's version at 22's D23. Actually now that I look at this, it seems to have the wooden rails that WDW had.

Happy 31st anniversary, Splash Mountain.
Looks like they boarded up the front of the barn.

More scaffolding. Looks the same to me. When is this thing supposed to open?
They say 2024 but who the heck knows?

From this past Tuesday (10/3):
Kind of surreal finally seeing it in person now. On my last WDW trip about 2 years ago I was having my last few rides on Splash Mountain.
Just feels weird not doing splash this trip. Also, this side of the park is eerily quiet now and (obviously) has less foot-traffic. Wondered if it affected BTMR somewhat because the wait times for it were not that bad at all for it.
Looking forward to what this turns into once it opens, and hopefully it is open by my next WDW trip!

When you were there did they remove all the signage for the Briar Patch store?From this past Tuesday (10/3):

I don't recall seeing any, so hopefully someone who frequents the parks could confirm.
I do recall seeing signage near the play area, pointing to the restroom or something.

Why would that be surprising? An attraction isn't completed more quickly just because you're not working on nine other attractions simultaneously. When you tack on the logistics of working within an active park and trying to keep daytime noise to a minimum, it's no mystery why it takes the time that it does. Nine women can't birth a baby in one month.

What do you think they'll rename the Briar Patch store?

Something silly like Tiana’s Treats…

And then they won’t actually sell treats. Just plush beignets that smell like the real thing!
To those commenting on the speed of work here, I actually don’t think the timescale is unreasonable for this project.

If people keep suggesting names for a food joint in a Disney park that isn't a pun, we're going to have to take your fan club membership card away.

I wasn't really singling out this new overlay (which i guess it looks like I'm doing since i thought about build times while looking at the construction pics for Tiana) , but the other projects like NFL, the Epcot neverending overhaul and the 3 year ish GotG build (which took over a completely unused space and was not in the way of anything). Tron got held up by covid stupidity, but the nearly half decade build times on lands and new attractions in order to spread expenditures over multiple years is really frustrating. You'd think they'd want to put maximum effort into their new rides so they can start cashing in on that sweet sweet genie + cash cow they've created, lol.
