I'm really surprised at All-Star Music refurbishment. It recently had a refurb, but All-Star Movies has not even been refurbed to the new furniture and fixtures like Sports and Music.

I saw pictures somewhere of refurbed rooms at All Star Movies. Not sure if all buildings are done or not. I was kind of surprised to hear ASMu is already getting refurbed again though. Has it already been that long?

The refurbishment ones are interesting as I don't recall seeing anything posted about those anywhere.

Hey Lou - any word on the Disney street about any of those?

Disney seems to post an internal advisory if it affects the operation of the attraction, restaurant, etc.

I'm guessing that list is for minor work where they need to take out a permit, but the work will have little or no impact on the operation.

I'm showing major refurbishments at certain attractions at all the parks, but none are on that list because they probably already have the permits.
