We took to the skies over Walt Disney World recently to get a unique perspective on a variety of projects taking place around the resort. In this post, we’ll take a look at the latest construction progress at the Best Western Lake Buena Vista resort at Disney Springs.
First, here’s a look at the permit for the work, showing the before and after of the area.
And here’s the “after” part of the permit, showing the expansion as a “phase 1” project.
Finally, here’s a look at the vertical construction progress as seen in our recent helicopter flight.
