We’re back with more updates on the construction situation at Epcot.

Back in February, Disney announced that they would be doing a major re-theming of the front entrance to Epcot. Construction to implement this change started about two weeks ago and there is already real progress being made in the removal of the Leave a Legacy monoliths.

Old version of Epcot entrance. Pre-construction.

One large section of monoliths has been fully removed. June 4, 2019.

A closer look. Even some of the monolith footings are now gone.

In this video screen capture, you can see the construction in relation to the Epcot park entrance on the far right of the photo. (Sorry for the blur.)

In addition to the monolith removal, they are also improving the security screening area at the Epcot park gate.
