Walls still around Winnie the Pooh

Just looked at the news update & photos on the home page and I notice the walls are still around the Winnie the Pooh tree. How come that little section is not finshed yet. Are they doing other things with the front of the ride?

They are supposed to be re-doing the whole outside facade.

To what?

I was hoping they would do something like they did at Disneyland when they changed the tournament tent style facades to a real building look. For example of the drastic change with Mr. Toad's Wild Ride:

I Think this should be a part of the FLE. It would really add alot of detail the area lacks, and gets rid of the tacky tournament tent style they currently have.

The facade will be undergoing a complete refurb to fit in with the "forest" theme. The ride will close for part of this construction. Just a few days ago, permits were filed to complete the work around the tree, so we'll see some construction soon.

Thanks for the info.

That looks amazing. I hope the plans are to make it look more like the above.

I work at Pooh and was told not to expect that wall to come down for quite a few months. I haven't seen or heard any work being done on it at all, so I don't know what's going on.
