Disney Files Seven Construction Permits for Disney Springs

A year-long permit window that could cause temporary closures suggests routine maintenance over major retheming

Overview

  • Walt Disney World’s Facility Asset Management Team filed seven Notices of Commencement that were recorded with the county, which authorize work on a footbridge and six retail and dining sites.
  • The filings, submitted Tuesday, name Buena Vista Construction Company as the contractor and list general construction activity at 1620 East Buena Vista Drive.
  • Permits cover the lagoon footbridge plus Paddlefish, Raglan Road, UNIQLO, The LEGO Store, the Happy Hound kiosk, and The BOATHOUSE and are valid through September 21, 2027.
  • Disney has not announced specific schedules or closures, so guests should expect possible short-term disruptions and longer walking routes if the footbridge is taken offline for repairs.
  • Such Facility Asset Management permits typically fund structural fixes or small refurbishments rather than Imagineering-led re-theming, so look for later public updates if Disney plans any visible design changes.
