Crews are staging a major effort in World Showcase Lagoon to remove the main infrastructure that provided docking and power for the massive Harmonious show platforms.
The demolition crew is using the recently staged Poseidon barges to facilitate the removal effort.
Crews are cutting the pilings supporting the docks and using a barge-mounted crane to lift them out of the water.
The work is being done with an eye toward the future, with EPCOT's new show expected to launch later this year.
Disney has revealed very little about the new nighttime spectacular. Still, WDWMAGIC sources suggest that the show will be far less complex than Harmonious and will be capable of being removed from the lagoon after each show in a similar way to Reflections of Earth.
Removing the docks indicates that there will be all new mooring points for the fireworks barges, and very little of the existing support infrastructure will be used going forward.
