DH and I just left GF a little while ago. I’m attaching some construction pictures from a few hours ago. FYI, it was pretty loud at times if you were walking outside nearby (sounded like saws, etc) but I didn’t hear anything from the main building (my room was on the atrium side/beach pool side). I could hear something pretty loud that sounded like jack hammers for a short while yesterday morning and again this morning for some work they are doing at the entrance gate, but it doesn’t seem like they could be working there long?? When they were working on Boca Chica last 4th of July, it was pretty loud, but it wasn’t when we were there early September so I’m guessing once they move to more work inside, it’s not as loud…but I’m not sure how long that will be on SL and Sago?? Does anyone remember if it was loud in August?? They were working pretty hard on the outside of SL for sure right now! Not a single manager or CM that I spoke to at GF knew anything about any construction starting in the main building in March, and although nobody knew a start date for certain on the main building renovations, several thought it would be in May. One of the RPC managers said the only thing they know is that all the main building rooms and lobby will begin at once but that the lobby work would continue beyond the main building rooms reopening. One would hope that means it would just be finish work like painting that wouldn’t be too disruptive! One CM told me they will keep a portion of the lobby open the whole time for check ins and such which makes sense, but if it’s anything like when they put the marble floors in years ago, it will be a mess!! We are keeping our reservation at GF in a few weeks for spring break based on what we were told so I hope this holds true and that maybe they will have moved more inside at SL at least! Hope this info is helpful to someone and doesn’t cause too much stress! We had a great time!
