New permits filed for Project G in World Celebration at EPCOT

Disney has filed new construction permits for work on the remaining areas of EPCOT's World Celebration.

Part of Project G, the permit covers foundation work on the former Innovations West building in the area of the old Club Cool.

The permit has the description of 'Project G 217 Foundations.' Interestingly, the permit references the location with its old name of Pasta Piazza which closed in 2001. (Thanks to danlb_2000 on the WDWMAGIC Forums for identifying the permit)

The permit is assigned to long-time Disney contractor, The Whiting-Tuner Contracting Company, a partner that typically works on major construction at Walt Disney World.

The general area was to become home to the new elevated festival center "table," which was scrapped during a re-evaluation of the project. It remains unclear what will take-shape in the area, but Disney has said it will be a festival area with details to come.

With Creations Shop and Club Cool now open, all attention is on completing the food & beverage areas, Journey of Water, and reopening the central spine of EPCOT.

Absolutely! I just meant if they were to put just one on each side like the trees! These talls were really representative of Florida's Best!

Barricades are up today preventing guests from tripping over the sections of plastic that are curling up at the corners.

I'm happily surprised, and happy if my comments about them never fixing this remain wrong comments.
