Magic Kingdom Fantasyland Forest Construction Update, Downtown Disney Former McDonalds / New Pollo Campero – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

Fantasyland has been undergoing quite a few changes, including the wall being moved to allow for better guest flow through the area. Scuttles Landing is now gone as is it’s canopy – but the tables and chairs remain (below left and right).

Construction equipment rests where Ariel’s Grotto was (below, left). Seashell remnants of Ariel’s Grotto are still in the pavement and seem to form a hidden Mickey (below, right).

You can see where the walkway has been widened (below, left). The artwork on the walls shows what will be built, we have a more detailed update from a few weeks ago HERE.

Video #1 – Magic Kingdom Fantasyland Forest Construction Update 5/26/2010 – The wall was moved to give more room for guests, and Scuttles Landing is gone.

McDonalds at Downtown Disney has now been gutted to make way for a new Pollo Campero restaurant. From Fultons, the recently widened Downtown Disney Marketplace walkway is visible (below, right) as is the upcoming Poll Campero (below, right).

Construction is underway at the front of Pollo Campero (below left and right). Pollo Campero is a Guatemalan fried chicken restaurant chain that also includes grilled chicken.

The roof of the McDonalds has been partly stripped (below, left). The former clock tower is within the walls and construction equipment is just beyond that (below, right).

The “Coming Soon” sign has been outside the restaurant for at least a week (below, left) and a different view of the building is below, right.

Video #3 – Downtown Disney Former McDonalds / New Pollo Campero Construction From Above 5/26/2010 – This is construction from where the former McDonalds Restaurant at Walt Disney World’s Downtown Disney was, and will soon be a Pollo Campero restaurant.
