This is obnoxious, and so sad. All that property and they have to intrude on the quiet Fort
Such a shame... if they just dialed it back 10%, it wouldn't have been very intrusive to the Fort.

They haven’t gotten that far around that area but they might. Here is a picture of it taken over the construction fence - notice the new rocks at the shoreline. The rope fence is down and it seems that they will be installing a deck or boardwalk. The shady picture is taken from the sidewalk heading to the dock so you can see where construction starts.Holy Moly, I'm slippin' in my old age. When we were there in September we did the Segway tour. We stopped on the easterly side of the boat dock.
They took our picture from there with the Castle and Space Mountain in the background. That area was the permanent rope fencing that they put up recently, about 6' from the waterline.
Between the fence and the water was stakes with elevations written on them. I thought that they were from the fence installation, but now I'm wondering if it's for new beach?
It would be a great view of the fireworks from that vantage point

I just came here to post that ^
Over in the Rumors and News forum, the moderator is stating that there will be a new Pioneer Hall. Any ideas where?
@bama_ed @Lehuaann The other poster claims he has all the site plans and that a new town center is coming to the Settlement area including a new Pioneer Hall. He’s been very accurate so far. The plans that show the work on the FW side between Pioneer Hall and the store haven’t been leaked as far as I’ve seen so it’s still possible. I’m curious if the expectation is that the resort and FW share amenities including QS. We also haven’t seen the plans that address the work IN the water - the dock either needs to grow a lot or a new one has to be built. My guess is that the Fort work, the beach work, the work in the water are desperate permits from Reflections and haven’t attracted the attention.
If they exist, please point me at them. I love site plans.
Back on page 1 I posted some plans for a new building across from the Settlement bus stop, where there is cart parking now. Turns out those are the plans for the new stables. Not far from the current location and a little more accessible.I must have missed it but has anyone posted exactly where the new barn is going to be ?
