Construction walls in World Nature and restroom closure - April 26 2022
Posted: Tuesday April 26, 2022 11:30am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Construction walls in EPCOT's World Nature have expanded further into guest areas this week as work continues at the park's center.


The expanded walls are located directly across The Land pavilion entrance and now enclose the former Future World West restrooms, which are now closed for refurbishment.


The walkway in-front of the restrooms is also blocked off at both ends of the planter.

During the closure of these restrooms the closest alternatives are at the Imagination pavilion and beneath Spaceship Earth.

Yes, they are also hard and sturdy, as opposed to floppy like the old ones. They’re also very reflective.

Do they look any higher quality than the old ones? I’m curious if they will be testing it tonight.

Here’s some photos I got a few days ago. These were taken the first day they were being installed, so there are much more installed now.

New Translucent LED diffusers seem be replacing the newly installed white covers in the broken ground lighting, maybe they are fixing it after all.

If only they had a master of flooring working on this project…

In better news, the perimeter fountain lights were recently repaired. The big beam into the sky should be working again soon as well

I am generally understanding, but this can't be that hard.

Half of the central light pillars are still stuck on a bright white on the sides, and one of them is still completely off on the sides…

None of the ribbon lighting around the entrance plaza is working correctly at this point, it’s not animating and several sections are completely broken/ incorrect colors/ delayed. Literally dozens of the points of light on SSE are constantly on when they shouldn’t be, and are blinking and flashing different colors like plane beacons. I will say that they finally fixed the fountain lights, (although the spotlight in the middle hasn’t turned on in over two years) but everything else is an utter disaster maintenance-wise at the moment. So many lighting effects broken in the main gardens too…

The amount of cracks and chips in the brand new pavement is crazy.
