Construction along the side of T-Rex from the water to parking Lot #2 appears to be a combination of new shops and what appears to be the beginnings of a water feature. Could this be the new "Disney Spring"? Image by Donald Fink

New Venue
A new area across from Ghirardelli's in the Marketplace has recently been carved out of the water and built on piers. Concrete floors are currently being poured. There appears to be a small area in the center where lots of plumbing and electrical conduit have been installed. Hopefully there'll be some additional seating. Image by Donald Fink
Lot 2 Construction
This is a view from the parking structure overlooking lot 2 and lot 1. You can see that quite a bit of construction is underway in the areas nearing the location of the old lot 1.
