Scaffolding Takes Over UK Pavilion at EPCOT
By golly, a spot of construction seems to be underway over in the UK pavilion at EPCOT!
Let’s hop over at take a look, shall we?
Scaffolding a-Plenty
While enjoying a stroll through the EPCOT World Showcase this week, our MickeyBloggers noticed that something was amiss over in the beautiful United Kingdom pavilion.
Towering above the quaint beauty of the flowers and tea gardens was a large amount of scaffolding, significantly covering a large portion of the pavilion’s brick house structures.
As you can see from our images, this scaffolding is quite obviously covering a large portion of the back of the pavilion and, for the most part, hasn’t been covered by that well-known green scrim we often see used to mask construction works in the parks.
While we did notice a couple of planters had been strategically placed to hide some of the view, the scaffolding does remain very much prominent in the pavilion. It’s worth taking note of this if you plan on visiting EPCOT over the coming days, as the view might mar some popular photo spots around the pretty UK pavilion!
A Spot of Work
So, what is it that’s actually going on over here in the World Showcase?
Well, our MickeyBlog reporters did take a good look all around the area, but unfortunately couldn’t be completely sure of what work was underway.
We did see a few signs advising of “Wet Paint,” implying that touch-ups were taking place on the building facades. However, in terms of any larger construction efforts that this large amount of scaffolding might suggest, we’re unfortunately none the wiser at the moment!
This being said, you can be sure that your MickeyBloggers will be keeping a close eye on the area over the coming days, to watch out for any further changes that may take place. As always, you can stay tuned to the blog for all the latest news and updates!
In the meantime, we have noticed that the UK pavilion and a few others have recently received new structural additions at EPCOT, in preparation for the upcoming New Year’s Eve celebrations.
