When should I visit? (Trying to avoid construction)

[Alexis]

Hi everyone!
Well, I'm trying to decide when my family and I should visit Disney World again. I know there is construction going on around the World, especially at Downtown Disney/Disney Springs and Magic Kingdom around the castle and hub.

I was wondering if anyone had any details as to when those two projects would be completed?
I know Springs was suppose to be completed in 2016. But around what month, if so, does that include the completed restaurants, expansion of World of Disney, etc?

Thanks for reading! and thank you in advanced for your input!

All I could find is that the hub expansion in Magic Kingdom will be complete sometime in 2015 and that Disney Springs will be complete in 2016, could be as early as Spring 2016. However, you aren't going to be able to avoid construction because Avatar is being built in Animal Kingdom, rumored Star Wars land will be coming to Hollywood Studios and the Frozen ride is being built at Epcot.
I would just pick a date that works for your family and plan a trip. Construction at Disney World is on going and not avoidable right now.

If you wait until all construction is completed, you will wait a looonnnggg time. In addition to the castle/hub work (due to finish by end of this year) and DTD/Disney Springs transformation (no set date in 2016), AK has lots of construction going on to prepare for Avatarland and Rivers of Light (2017-18) and DHS is set to undergo a major refurbishment (details to be released very soon) which will take several years. And at any given time, there are always attractions closed for refurbishment which sometimes interfere with walkways.

Just plan for a time that's best for you, make the most of it and enjoy!!!

If you would wait for all major projects to finish you will be waiting a long time! Lol. Some will be done late 2015, mid 2016, but Avatar at AK will not be done until 2017, and other projects that may come up like at HS etc will probably long after 2017 until finished.
