I'm going to start posting progress photos of the construction at the new VDH Tower. My goal is to head over there at least every two weeks to capture and share the construction progress as it moves onward and upward.

Others should feel encouraged to post pictures as well, as views from rooms, particularly in the Frontier Tower, will be better than most I can capture from ground level. Gonna try to keep this mostly photos rather than discussion, so there's a cleaner and more easily followed progression.

Here is the first batch, from last Saturday:

Wowzer! Thanks Ursula. Nicely framed pic with the Disneyland Hotel sign. Looks like it’s blending in with the rest of the resort. Hoping that since the VDH has Walt’s name in it that it will be top notch with the finish and aesthetic. My wife and I are aligned to visit in 2023 for a points scouting trip.
 
Thanks - look forward to seeing @DonMacGregor 's pics since it's been a couple weeks. There are VERY few photos people have taken from the side / back - mostly just the front. Glad it's done going vertical. Going to be amazing when the netting stuff (what does one call that) come down and we can really see what the exterior looks like. I love the yellow striped windows and excited to see the graphic screen boarder they are doing.
 
Here's a couple pics taken by Samantha Kanner of DCLDuo (Thanks!) in late December 2022 from their room in the Frontier Tower looking North toward the Fantasy Tower. If you've ever wondered what's right behind those walls? Mud :-).

We'll see what the weather is like. It's been dumping down on and off for days. Right now, things are supposed to clear up Monday afternoon, but we shall see what the Pineapple Express has to say.

The netting stuff? I don't know the technical term either, but I refer to buildings as being Shrouded in Mystery when they have the scaffolding up with the nets on it.
