Same. Now that I'm hearing all these 2013 rumors it's making me think that it might open earlier than expected. Not that much earlier but slightly.

What parts of New Fantasyland will be open in late July.
- Thread starter filmy3
- Start date
I don't see any way LM can open without at least the external elements of BATB open as well. I could see them holding off on the restaurant and meet and greet for a month or two, but they'll need the bridges and walkways to get people around the construction zone of the SWMT.
I believe you'll know when we're getting close when the castle walls are done and the area is paved. Honestly, looking at where we are now, it wouldn't surprise me if LM (and the external areas of BATB) are open by July.
And since when has the Mine Train ever been rumored for late Spring 2013? The most recent news I've heard has been either Spring 2014 or late Q4 2013....

Look earlier in this thread wdw71fan posted the late Spring 2013 date.
Yes, I know. That's exactly what I was referring to...
The first 3 weeks of September (roughly) have been late summer as long as I have been able to read a calendar. :shrug:

I figured they were waiting to put thr skin on thr tent until they were farther along with the rock work right next to the tent.
All they have left on the rockwork now is painting, so theyve started putting the tent together.
When do you think they'll start paving New Fantasyland and I thought in some photos over the wall I saw one or two layers of scaffolding being taken down. By the way talked to Disney Dining and they said the Be Our Guest was supposed to be done in late March 2012. When she said that I started freaking out...she probably thought that I was crazy.

Paving is usually one of the last things they do. I would imagine we would see them doing the concrete lining of the water features first.
Doesn't sound like they know what they are talking about which wouldn't be surprising. March 2013 seems to far out.
Oh, she meant the March 2012. Thanks for noticing that I'm going to change it so people don't get the wrong idea.

That's even worse. When did you talk to her?
As of today 2 days ago. It does make it much worse because I have never seen Disney be late on an opening. She said it will probably open soon but I don't know what "soon" means. Next week? Next month?

If by "soon" she means 5 more months, then she would be right.
