I was at the Boardwalk last night (on a 2 day Orlando business trip, had free time last night). The boardwalk side of the former DVC models is boarded off. The boards come out at least as far as where the hedges used to be. DVC had said that they do not plan to rent the rooms on the second floor above it while work is going on. I hope not because the boards are almost as high as the bottom of those balconies. I don't know if there is covering across the top so that you cannot see down in.
