New steel beams have been installed over the past couple of days at the former Innoventions East building in EPCOT.

The new beams over the Innoventions East entrance fills in the gap of the overhanging roof structure.

A large crane has been onsite to assist with the work.

This part of the former Innoventions building is expected to become home to food and beverage operations, which will include a new Starbucks, replacement for Electric Umbrella, and more.

    I'm happily surprised, and happy if my comments about them never fixing this remain wrong comments.
