PHOTOS: Work Continues on Roof Overhang of Connections Café and Eatery at EPCOT

While the interior of Connections Café and Eatery is mostly blocked from view, we can see how far work has come on the exterior of the new EPCOT restaurant. Crews have been working on the roof of the old Innoventions building.

Scaffolding covers one section of the exterior facing the World Discovery neighborhood.

Crew members were working on the corner of the building, which is being reconstructed.

It is now covered in vertical steel pieces, and DensGlass sheathing lines the edge of the roof.

Windows were installed in this area of the breezeway, but the ceiling has yet to be repainted.
