I'm pretty sure the yellow area has steel in place for a roof.

Interesting, why would they need scaffolds on a steel frame?

The concept art of the interior might give a clue. Is it all sunshiny bright? Perhaps lots of glass...

To hang the siding I'm assuming. It's probably not just a concrete wall that you crane into place.

Boy those are some mighty desirable parking spaces some people have right there on the side. Could you imagine being able to park there?

Offices. Storage.

I used to park there. *sniffle* But in a company vehicle that never (or rarely) left the property. I just zipped around backstage.

I see quite a bit of traffic there so I was wondering if there were services for TMs or something like that

Introducing PPP (premium parking plus) for only $100 a day. You also get your own private security guard and metal detector. Plus for an extra $50 you can have your car destroyed in the F&F preshow by a stunt man in a monster truck.

The building right across from it is wardrobe, aka, the main team member entrance. And that road that goes off besides the wardrobe building goes to/from the main vehicle gate for backstage access, so pretty much constant traffic around there. Just a few buildings down is the main cafeteria.

So, arriving workers - shuttle busses for workers - and upper level staff, plus internal vehicles zipping around. A small number get to drive around backstage in a personal vehicle - most are driving the company fleet, but there's a decent number in the company fleet. The road is always busy.

It's also one of the few parking lots anywhere near the cafeteria.

It's a bit emblematic of the culture difference between Dis/Uni. Uni likes to have a single location for some sort of backstage support service, whereas Disney likes to have multiple. So Uni backstage is lots of people going from A to B all day.

Oh duh, forgot the most obvious reason people come and go there all day - especially that parking lot - it's the closest parking lot to Starbucks and TM's get a discount.

One morning they assumed I was a TM. Nice discount. Granted I was in the park often at the time but.....
