Overview
- Most high-reach cranes that lined the Magic Kingdom icon are now gone, with one remaining unit tucked under the Tomorrowland bridge for overnight touchups.
- The castle’s moat is still drained and some scrim and scaffolding remain in place, and outlets report the refill could follow soon once a small punch list is complete.
- The 50th‑anniversary pink has been repainted to a pale gray and the tower roofs now show a brighter blue, with extra gold accents still on the facade.
- Disney staged daytime work in short morning windows and lowered cranes by lunch to keep guest photo spots on Main Street and the central hub clear for most of the day.
- Disney has not formally declared the job finished, though recent wall removals and the return of castle-stage shows signaled the project’s final phase earlier this month.
