Disneyland Star Wars Construction Check (6/24)
This post has a quick check of the Star Wars preparations at Disneyland taken with my cell phone. For more pictures visit my full picture sets and/or our construction progress section.
A check of the site from the Mickey and Friends parking structure.
A pan across the site from left to right.
The mound of dirt is smaller than before but still large. They were still hauling away dirt today.
Hard to see progress on the forms from this distance and angle.
More supplies are onsite now

In the area closest to the parking structure they were breaking up and hauling away asphalt.

The back area of the Hungry Bear was blocked off today. Not sure if it is related to work or because it was very quite.
Here is a wider view at 5:00pm, all the near tables are accessible just empty. I counted under 10 tables in use only.
The site of the former Skyway building now has some markers on it.

The progress on Star Wars Land seems to be disappointingly slow. Based on the rumors that I had heard I had hoped the land would be going vertical by now. This may be the last photo update that I view for a little while so that at least some progress can be made on the area. The Soarin’ update looks incredible and will prove to be popular for the next year. After that, I hope they bring back the original attraction in one theater and leave the new movie in the other.
Seems like great progress. Everything has to leveled before any type of paving goes on top.
