Current work at the Fort

Yes I was thinking Good thing that is for the Cash guests!

But that destroys the view for the new LL balconies .
What is more important to DVC selling the new LL or keeping the Fort campers happy? I think we already know the answer to that.

Just a clarification. This portion of the LL building is NOT DVC. This portion is traditional cash hotel rooms. The DVC building is the one on the other side. (If you notice from the lake, you will see that LL is actually 2 separate buildings with a common lobby, very similar to Boardwalk.

My contention after being there last week is that if they would have just put the cash building on the other side of the DVC building (i.e. - between the DVC LL building and Wilderness Lodge), this would have been much better as there would have been 500 yards or so of woods in between Pioneer Hall and the Monstrosity.

I guess that's true, @DL1WDW2.

However, it might take a few years for those tree to grow tall enough to break up the view for the floors/balconies/windows on the upper levels.

Until that time comes, though, those folks will still be able to appreciate their view of the dumpsters behind Pioneer Hall with all the Trails End/HDDR contents (which SHOULD be a separate bookable room category).

Instead of a *Tree of Life* they build a bunch of Giant Sequoias and have Animatronic birds and bears so the view is entertaining. I'd pay for that.

Okay, that's fine, @tidefan. I don't really care WHO (cash or DVC) is close to Pioneer Hall. It's just that someone IS. And it makes sense in a 50.01%-vs-49.99% situation that is the monstrosity, ownership takes the slight edge over renting (not that it matters to me).

Nice to know, though.
