Walt Disney World Resort Pictures
The text list below contains the captions of all images in the set.
Arrived at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort just before 4pm after waiting out a thunderstorm and then walking to the Magic Kingdom and catching a bus to the resort.
The new Coronado Springs tower. It appears they are working on the rooftop with all the guest floors framed out.
A closer look at the multistory lobby that will look out to the lake.
A closer look at the wing nearest where I was standing. Appears guest rooms will start on the 3rd floor.
They have up to the 11th floor mostly framed out.
The future site of a Floating Bar and Grille in the center point of the lagoon.
The columns the building will float on.
New bridges will criss-cross the lagoon.
The current lobby building.
The new tower from this angle. It appears the driveway will be on the second story and you will enter there.
A closer look at the roof area. The rain started up again (so you will see it in many of the pictures now).
The lobby.
Appears to be a set of elevators next to the lobby.
They are using mobile scaffolding to work on the building. Here they are attaching panels to the frame.
A closer look into the lobby area.
Looks like the rooftop is taking shape with rebar for the next concrete pour.
Looking at one of the new walkways across the water.
Went inside the lobby to dry out a bit.
Did you notice the Mickey light.
Near the front door is this poster with some concept art.
Work going on in the food court dining area.
A look at one of the new walkways over the water.
A quick look at one of the menus.
Made my way down the convention center hallway to a small preview center that is set up.
There will be 500 new guest rooms once completed.
The new lobby space
A model of Coronado Springs. The white areas are the new additions.
The tower from the convention center.
Utility work going on in the parking lot.
A map of the convention center spaces.
Waiting for a bus out front of the resort. Happy they are stopping under cover since it is still raining.
Decided to travel to the Animal Kingdom and transfer buses there to stay under cover. Next stop will be the Caribbean Beach Resort.
A very bad picture.. but behind the sign is an accessible MiniVan. I did not see any others this trip and this was the best I could grab.
