It’s been a few weeks since we stopped by Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort to check out the construction on Disney’s Riviera Resort. Riviera is a 12-story tower being constructed at the front of the Caribbean Beach property near Buena Vista Drive.
Last time we looked at Riviera the building was at 8 stories. Here we can see that the final two stories are being added on in one small section on the east side of the resort. They have yet to top-out construction.
Nothing much different is happening on the front side of the resort, just lots of people and construction vehicles working to ensure a 2019 opening.
Looking over toward Caribbean Beach, we see two Skyliner pylons that will connect the Caribbean Beach station to one of two turns on its way to Epcot.
Disney needs to get on adding another theme park to Orlando. The limited space they have, and few rides opening in the next 5 years is NOTHING compared to the huge onslaught of rooms and people.
