Progress continues on the roof of Connections Café and Eatery, the new restaurant next to Creations Shop at EPCOT, which has been coming together quickly since it was announced last November. Exterior work has mainly been focused on the side facing Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind.

The front of the building has been completely painted, though scaffolding remains on the wall closest to Spaceship Earth. We also noticed that the column next to that scaffolding had a new steel structure atop it.

We could see the steel better from the ground. It seems like it is going to be an extension of the column.

Roof work at Connections Café and Eatery has been ongoing but difficult to see for several months.

The column and everything past it wrapping around towards Cosmic Rewind have yet to be completely repainted to the new cream color.

The paneling atop the column is torn where the steel has been added.

We may see the old paneling be replaced.

This column is right next to Guest Relations, which remains open during construction.

Through the windows of Connections Café, we could see colorful lights.

There are strips of teal green lights on the ceiling and some blue lights along the walls.

Some windows remain covered by tarps.

Crew members continue to work on the corner of the building that was recently rounded off.

In the breezeway next to Creations Shop, we could see more lights on.

There are blue, green, and orange lights inside the café.
