Originally Posted By trekkeruss I figured as much. So it could be damaged, right? It's still just a dock, and probably not worth contemplating over.
Originally Posted By trekkeruss Ok, I actually looked at the link; before I merely glanced at it. So now I know what it is, at least. Expansion could mean a lot of things. It doesn't say how much. I don't know about regulations, but perhaps even one square foot of "expansion" requires a permit. I can't believe I am discussing a dock.
Originally Posted By Manfried I would like to know what "suspicions" mousemerf has. I mean you are suspicious of them doing something. Are you afraid their going to actually do something that will somehow impact EPCOT Center? What is it they are going to do? Expand the dock? Repair the dock. To paraphrase Groucho... Why a dock?
Originally Posted By FerretAfros I don't think it looks suspicious at all. The new dock will be larger, so the work being done qualifies as an expansion of what's already there. I would assume that it's nothing important, and that there's a chance that they will be 'expanding' the other docks around the lagoon to match soon. Looking at the drawing provided, there is nothing on it that makes me believe that it's anything even remotely out of the ordinary. Dug, if you click the "I Agree" button on the bottom of the page it will take you to a PDF of the building permit for an enlargement of the Friendship Boat dock next to Germany.
