Disney Springs Update February 2016

We took a stroll round Disney Springs for lunch today, it’s really taking shape and exciting to see how it’s morphing from what was Downtown Disney to Disney Springs. We took a sneaky peak behind the miles of billboards whilst the construction changes are being made.

Downtown Disney / Disney Springs Update 2015 | New Boathouse Restaurant

Boathouse Restaurant at Disney Springs in Orlando FloridaLast night we went for a stroll round Downtown Disney to see how they are getting on with the transformation into Disney Springs, it’s completion is not due for another year (Spring 2016). I’m pleased to report that the main multi-storey car park was open, we parked on the 4th floor in the hope of a view, but there wasn’t much of one!

Amphicars at Disney Springs in Orlando FloridaThe roads in are complete, but we were guided out past Cirque du Soleil, which added a few minutes onto the journey, as the way out hasn’t been finished yet. The walkways into Downtown Disney aren’t complete yet either with long billboards sectioning off areas whilst the building work continues.
