Overview
- Observers and park-focused outlets report that crews have extended scaffolding and protective scrim farther across the Tower of Terror’s front and left face as part of a staged exterior refresh.
- The scaffolding reached the left side of the building past the drop shaft on Wednesday, according to photos shared by WDWNT and confirmed by multiple independent outlets.
- Work appears to involve repainting the facade with brighter pink base coats in areas worked on first and will later receive the attraction’s trademark weathered finish.
- Walt Disney World has not announced any planned closures and the attraction remains open, and reporters say the scaffolding does not currently block riders’ outward views during the drop sequence.
- The project has unfolded in phases since spring—including a queue refresh completed in May—and public tracking has relied mainly on social-media and outlet photos rather than detailed official updates.
