[rteetz]

I updated the first post with an LMA demolition update.

Question for those of you following this thread. Should I make this a sticky thread so its easier to update and easier to access to see updates?

Wow! I love it, that seems like a very good fit (and the streets of America are still there )

I don't think we need a sticky. Those of us following the thread can easily access it via the "Watched Thread" function of the boards.

ok, maybe a dumb question, but what does the "in" and "out" in the Toy Story part represent? Is that now a new entrance/exit for Toy Story Mania? If so that main drag where the current entrance is going to feel like a hallway with no doors

The current entrance to TSMM will close and become backstage.

There was a permit filed today for Project D -Site work and Site Utilities Installation with an address of 375 Cypress Lane. The general contractor is Whiting-Turner but the permit also lists a bunch of other contractors covering all the major construction trades. 375 is an address used for the Hyperion Theater, but it could just be something in that area. I have heard the code name Delos used in connection with Star Wars Land so this might be the first actual construction permit for the land.

Expiration Date: 9/26/2019.

A follow up this this, after reviewing the permit again, it's definitely for Star Wars Land because it lists contractors for both DHS and Disneyland.

Interesting that they would use Delos... A theme park company where the animatronics killed the guests in "Westworld".

Another code name to watch for is Alcatraz. That is the code name for the battle attraction.

Probably not interesting as the building is presumed to remain backstage when TSL and SWL open, but a notice of commencement was filed for "General Construction" by Try Cor Electric on the "Engineering Services Building" with an end date of 9/1/2016.

That is this building. This is at least the second permit I have seen for this building recently so it looks like it's staying for now. Also based on the water management permits, the water next to it is also staying.
