Fun Fact there are now 3 same barges plus main barge being built behind soaring and its huge.
It looks 'shopped, but when blown up, it's clearly an LED screen that's set to Searing Green.

its not for testing of some sorts, its a taping for an upcoming tv program which OLC/TDR usually participates. But what i can tell you Dreamlights might have done floats testing by phases like ala, Nightfall glow.
Like separate cavalcades? Nightfall Glow isn't big enough to spread apart.

That's just next to the Star Tours showbuilding afaik. They could've painted it in skyblue but... they care in Tokyo.
I'd expect the same for Fantasy Springs.

Find local businesses, view maps and get driving directions in Google Maps.

You're correct. It is in front of Star Tours. Here's an aerial.That's just next to the Star Tours showbuilding afaik. They could've painted it in skyblue but... they care in Tokyo.

(Star Tours at the top, SM bottom right, and the new bus stops at the bottom left.)
The patch of dirt between the bus stops and Star Tours is where this new mystery building sits.
It isn't exactly that they care in Tokyo. Star Tours was unthemed on the back prior to this because there was a hedge between it and the parking lot.
Before they removed the trees Star Tours at TDL was like Dinosaur or FoP at Animal Kingdom.
GotG at Epcot could be an example that they don't care like they do in Tokyo, but this new building is right next to a guest area so if they didn't theme it, it wouldn't meet the standards of any of the parks, not just the ones in Tokyo.

Take a look at the un themed costuming building that borders Disneyland’s bus stop plaza. This is indeed another example of Tokyo Disney doing something that, while not needed, definitely enhances the area.

I assume you're talking about this building?
Never knew this building existed. Always enter Disneyland from the other way.

Yes. The shuttle drop off/pedestrian arrival to Disneyland from Harbor Blvd has always been subpar since the Resort expanded. I was hoping the Eastern Gateway project would have finally provided some enhancement to this area.

Changing the subject a bit but keeping with the Tokyo expansion is there room to give Tokyo a Runaway Railway like the CA resort?
I looked on google and I am guessing the show building is close to Small World, there does not seem to be room. Thought?

The show building of Disneyland's Runaway Railway takes up about 1.75 acres.
Tokyo is more than capable of getting MMRR but the better question is how eager they are to get it.
The entire neighborhood section of Tokyo Disneyland's Toontown would have to come down to make way for the building. Before the massive Fantasy Springs expansion, they could have put the MMRR showbuilding behind Toontown, just like Disneyland but that ship has long since sailed.
Another major factor that would likely discourage Tokyo from building MMRR in their Toontown is its ridesystem. On the left side of the picture is Pooh and on the right is Beauty and the Beast, two trackless attractions. MMRR would be the 3rd trackless attraction in just that specific spot.

Thank you for showing the scale. What tool do you use to measure and draw that block? Uber Cool!
was my guess of the small world building being about the same size? Now that I see your overlay I am guess the small world is a little bit bigger.
