Today, we stopped by EPCOT to see the latest on some of the construction projects ongoing around Future World.

Over at the Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind site, all was relatively quiet, except for this lone worker at the very top of the show building.

Behind what was the rear exit to MouseGear, we can see new walkway, planter frames, and walls being put into place.

The remaining walkway outside the back entrance to MouseGear continues to see sections removed ahead of its widening.

The mystery of the ongoing “landscaping” work between The Land and Imagination! continues to deepen. The framing for what looks to be a new retaining wall is in place while the ground in front has been leveled.

The large planters outside The Seas with Nemo and Friends remain devoid of any plant life after being filled in with dirt and mulch.

Meanwhile, the planter outside of the old Art of Disney store location remains empty, although new mulch is in place waiting to be put down. The walls here may be removed soon to reveal new planters.

Stay tuned to WDWNT as we continue to monitor the ongoing transformation of EPCOT.
