Epcot’s overhaul is now in its third year, with multiple new projects finally greeting guests, but there’s still plenty in the works. Believed to cost more than a billion dollars, the project is the largest update to the park since its opening in 1982. At the foot of Spaceship Earth, a new entrance plaza, with color-changing LEDs and a fountain reminiscent of the one that greeted guests when the park first opened, wrapped up its remodel earlier this year. Now the focus is shifting the areas behind Spaceship Earth.
