The new structure for the covered screening area is fully framed out and ready for some stylistic elements to be added in the coming weeks.

You can see the Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind show building in the background, painted to blend in with the sky and the tree line.

Here is another angle of the soon-to-be-paved rectangle, along with some blueprints in the tan cubes off to the right.

We’re looking forward to the reimagining of the entire entrance area! What are your thoughts fo the EPCOT overhaul? We’d love to hear about it in the comments.
