I still see no way of getting to the top level.

I still see no way of getting to the top level.

There was a debate a while back about the center deck being sloped to connect the levels, but I am not seeing that. I think there are going to be ramps on the other side of the garage. You can see in this picture where they have left an opening in the end wall that could be for a ramp.

They're apparently building ramps, but we don't seem to have many pictures of those or illustrations of how they'll work. Yeah, I'm curious too.

Thank you - I thought I was the only one seeing a flat deck!

Here is a good picture of the other side of the garage that shows the ramps taking shape. You can see a ramp from the ground to the first level, and there appears to the beginnings of a ramp sticking out of the third level. You can also see opening in the side walls above that ramp on the 4th and 5th levels.

Ahhhh. Exterior ramps. Nice. Thanks for the update.

Thanks, I saw that set of pictures, but still wasn't sure exactly how things were going to be arranged.

I am still not entirely sure how the upper ramps are going to work. I wish we could get a good aerial view of the site, something better then the balloon view.

Last deck will pour tomorrow morning.. After that just ramps and small stuff.

An escalator in position inside the garage before installation.

Following pictures taken between Planet Hollywood and AMC Dine-in movie theater. Main pedestrian entrance/exit to garage taking shape. In last two pictures, note elevator bank to the right with 4 elevator shafts.

PHOTOS - Exterior facades now being added to the Disney Springs West Side parking garage

This seems to seriously being in overdrive at this point. This bi-weekly picture updates always seem to reflect a lot of exterior design completion.

Are there any more pictures/aerials of the I-4 overpass construction? That one is still sort of hard for me to visualize.

Yep its moving fast. Still on track for some of it opening late 2014.

Construction always seems to be like that. Some aspects linger on forever while others move a warp speed.

Truth - I guess there's nothing too glamorous of watching leveling land and such.

So is the plan for the facades just to be alternating horizontal and vertical slats?

Not bad, should at least provide some shade. Fairly simple but it beats what I originally figured they would install as a facade, which would be nothing.

I believe those slats are going to have plants growing on them, eventually providing green covers for the garages.

Even better.
