Roof Installed on Grand Floridian’s Birdcage-Style Lobby Bar in Ongoing Lobby Renovation

The project is part of a broader makeover affecting guest routines.

Overview

  • On-site photos show the steel framework enclosing the new lobby bar with a brown roof consistent with Disney’s concept art.
  • The venue replaces the former aviary and is expected to be wider while retaining a similar height and roof profile.
  • Check-in has been temporarily relocated to the center of the lobby near the construction zone.
  • Construction walls, tarps and closures span the lobby, and the long-closed Garden View Tea Room remains blocked with scrim.
  • Work continues on the convention center roof, and Disney has confirmed the resort’s 2025 gingerbread house will not be built.
