I was there last Thursday and Sunday, but the TTA was only running on Sunday. I'm not sure if they were working on SM and surrounding area on Thursday and didn't want to run the risk of debris getting to close to the TTA?!?!
Anyway, I too was shocked by the view of the torn down building - and some of the heap of metal looked like it may have also contained some pieces of old track.

I don't know why but I'm sad to see that building go. Even though it wasn't used for anything but bathrooms (that was probably what the smell was) I thought it was cool. I would sit there on the steps sometimes (out of the rain) and wonder what was inside and what they used it for. It has just always been there. Wonder what they will replace it with. I guess with the TTA being up high, there was no way to hide the demolition.

We were there Friday Sept 11 and the TTA was open at the MNSSHP that evening. As you are leaving SM, if you look up, you can see people working on the coaster. They even waved at us.

Those Tomorrowland bathrooms were the one place in Magic Kingdom where there never seemed to be a line, LOL( for the powder room that is). With my 4 year old niece in tow, it was a much quicker process for the newly potty trained "I gotta go now" syndrome. Oh well, now she's 8 and can wait (or at least make it to adventureland or the tucked away loo over by the teacups)! I guess I even Ishould expect longer lines too, don't wait to the last minute (my mom would always say).
Glad to hear the Wedway people mover is moving people again!

Sometimes there's just no way to avoid it. I remember when the Skyway was in place and Snow White was closed you could clearly see everything going on behind the walls...not to mention quite a few backstage areas.
I think they try their best to hide construction but if certain attractions are elevated or follow a certain path there's sometimes no way to hide it.
