Has the geyser in the lake disappeared yet?  I am wondering if it will go away or be repurposed.

If the geyser was left-over from the Greedy Bro.s days then I can see them leaving it in the lake.

I looked into that, but it looks like everything points to both the Geyser and the Greedy Bro's structure being removed completely. Everything that was part of the old Geyser Gulch will be torn out and trashed, they are starting completely over from scratch. The current PTB really don't care about salvaging or re-using anything... I mean, some of them even scoff at the idea of people being nostalgic about the park, but that's a whole can of crap that we don't want to get into. Just a different way of doing things now.

Where was that last picture taken? The one looking out the window.
You have a great past just ahead of you.

Yes, it was taken in the toy shop.  Good eye tinmann!

Geyser Gulch main building is now completely down. 
All that remains is the structures in the water, which should leave soon as well.
Also of note, the barrel of toys that guarded the entrance to the Toy Store is now gone as well.

So are we not following / updating on this project anymore?   ???

The S&S tower is up now - hard to believe that no one has pictures.
(well I do, but I am not at home right now to post them -- no not at park either)

That went up fast! I guess that probably had to be the first ride built so they can get the Fire Station built in time.

If anyone is going anytime soon, I'd like to compile an official update/construction log, so any photos you'd like to contribute would be greatly appreciated.

I took a couple pictures of the construction area from the LR bridge/line that I could add. Nothing too special, though.
