WDW: Contemporary Resort Update (Sun, 30 Dec 2007 13:57:10 -0500) About This Page:

[PassPorter News]

[Reader Report] The Contemporary Resort is looking GREAT! The whole place has fresh paint and carpet. According to cast members at the Contemporary, Chef Mickey's will expand to the side and the existing lounge and Concourse Steakhouse will move to the basement. The "grab and go" food area will occupy the space currently used by Concourse Steakhouse. It is funny that the concourse area currently smells like burning pizza, due to the temprorary grab & go which is out in the open! Probably the most exciting thing is the HUGE building that is "not yet DVC." While of course the DVC rep is forbidden to acknowledge WHAT that building is, it clearly is a crescent-shaped building facing the lake and the pylons for the walkway into the concourse of the main building are CLEARLY visible. Seeing this building grow ever taller is quite thrilling, in spite of the fact that Disney refuses to tell onlookers what the building IS. But in general, the whole area is teeming with activity and looking so good after the start of much-needed TLC.

Thanks for the update. The new building is not exactly a well-kept secret, is it?

I wondered what was going on there. My DH kept asking me what they were building, but I hadn't been following any of that kind of news- I had parks and ADRs to keep track of for 7 people .
