The lighting towers will be part of the extensive lighting system that is being installed on CommuniCore Hall. The building will be covered in LED panels, which will come to life with entertainment in the area.

I liked the canopies there, they actually provided a little shade. The canopies directed upwards like they are currently hung won't do much.

That looks like a very poor design/execution. It doesn't look like it would provide much shade. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Now reimagine those to look like the green army men parachutes, and put them up in Toy Story Land…

Any news on the Epcot Dedication Plaque up front? Or is their any word if it will be put inside the plaza rather than outside the entryway??

This is true, admittedly I’m just having a bit of fun.

Bigger fish to fry then complain about a flex space...

Calling it right now, these “neighborhoods” won’t stick around. They’ll probably eventually just call the front half of the park something else and use the colors to symbolize ideas or topics like nature, space etc. Aside from the fact that they aren’t even cohesive, these names tie them up as to what they can do in a future expansion. Plus Figment and the Land being right next to each other but in different “lands” is just hilarious to me. Great job creatives!

Kids activities during festivals, more booths if they wanted.. What happened to the playground that was on the back of the former Mousegears/Connections section. Was that removed??

“Absolutely remarkable”

Truly incredible, this is probably one of the most innovative concepts I’ve ever seen at a theme park. It even has this futuristic game with a rectangle that has a circle cut out of it, that you can throw an object called a “beanbag” at. The future is now people.

i wonder what this space will be used for besides tables and little games. Im not even opposed to little games like connect 4 and cornhole but I imagine they will use this for other things as well
