The construction walls near to Morimoto Asia have been rearranged, giving us a better look at the construction of Morimoto Asia.

The front of the building is now visible, including the large glass frontage and the outdoor terrace.

Morimoto Asia is expected to open in September 2015, and will be the second of the major new dining destinations to open in Disney Springs.

The details! :geek:

Amazing.
Can't wait to see a menu. Especially the 'street' food.
Photo update as of Thursday, Aug 6. Note the yellow walls are being covered by corrugated metal sheets. Windows on left of building were yellow a few days ago in WDWMagic's news posting.

I love that glass corner! Great juxtaposition of old vs. new!
The sign is now up
I'm looking forward to all the new additions at Disney Springs.
But this restaurant especially.
Photo update as of Sunday, Aug 23. Morimoto Asia's two-story glass corner now has a large hanging glass light fixture. Painting the backside of the building (gray to match the corrugated sheet metal) has been ongoing all week.
Are these LED's?
no it is rigid foam insulation panels... the corrugated steel will go on top of it. that steel will get hot, and they dont want bleedthrough, there is enough A/C loss in that glass to begin with

Yes. Those are LED's. They will eventually be covered with corrugated steel. The steel will have tiny cutouts that will be backlit by the LED's.

Are you being serious? Because if you are, that's a nice touch.
