Overview
- Walt Disney Imagineering submitted a South Florida Water Management District filing for two new buildings at the Stolport site, labeled as Project K.
- The plans include new parking areas, sidewalks, utilities, and drainage systems along with updates to two retention ponds and their control structures.
- Reporting indicates the facilities are intended to support Magic Kingdom expansion work tied to a Cars-themed Piston Peak area and a Villains land, which Disney has not fully detailed.
- Stolport, a former airstrip repurposed during New Fantasyland, continues to serve as a central base for Imagineering near the Transportation and Ticket Center.
- The filing follows other backstage preparations, including permits for construction trailers and tree clearing behind Big Thunder Mountain and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, plus new WDI facilities near Animal Kingdom and use of the former Galactic Starcruiser building.
