Onto the news!
Hollywood Studios Construction Updates
We’ve been keeping our eyes peeled on this construction at the exit of Toy Story Mania for a while. Now, it looks like some paint has been added to the exterior. There is still no word on what this building will become once complete. As we hear more information, we will let you know!
New updates!
They had also drained more of Echo Lake when we stopped by! Chances are this is for maintenance, but Disney has yet to confirm anything officially. This could also be due to flooding issues that happen at the park when heavy rain is expected, but we’ll be sure to keep an eye out for updates.

We noticed on our most recent trips to Hollywood Studios that Municiberg City Block was closed off.

We aren’t sure exactly why it has been closed but we’re keeping an eye and an ear out for any updates.
