Aerial Images Show Monstropolis Continuing To Take Shape at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

The Muppets Courtyard and backstage area disappear more and more each week as the area is transformed into the new Monstropolis area of Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Conduit is being run through the upcoming new coaster building, and more facades and decorative elements are being removed to make room for Mike, Sully, and the Monsters Inc. crew.

Thanks to @bioreconstruct, we have a look at that progress.

The coaster building foundation is still taking shape.

Construction in this area will take years to complete.
