I'm expecting at least someone handcuffing himself to a tree in Tom Sawyer Island.
I wouldn't mind joining them

"An updated Epcot guidemap started to be available at the Walt Disney World Resort on December 31, 2016."
Further evidence in the desire to reduce annual passes. The ticket offer is for a multi-day ticket. Just a few years ago they tried to convert every DVC member to an annual pass with the $399 deal.
So, the ticket discount is a low cost ticket with Water Park and More included free. For example, a 10 day ticket, with park hopper and water park and more is $446.24.
Edit: Yes, that is correct. In 2012 DVC members could buy a Premium Annual Pass for $399. In 2016, we can buy a 10-day park hopper with water parks for $446. So, for $50 more we get 10 days instead of 365. LOL is likely to have some thoughts on this.
I've voluntary disconnected the blood flow to my cerebrum to intentionally NOT have the thoughts form

I remember this discussion when they announced the race track being closed for a future transportation project. TTC area is prime location for so many things. Aside from the monorail spur for Epcot, there really is no good reason for it to be there. Move parking for the MK to the east side of the park and have a walk up entrance along the lake to the front gate.@lockedoutlogic I know you've mentioned things on this before but it seems you might be onto something based on the latest Jim Hill podcast and yes I know what you think about him.
Jim says that WDW management has been looking at transportation a lot lately and yes that is evident in the road work, parking changes etc. Disney is apparently looking at moving the TTC offsite bus parking/drop off area will be moved to the old WDW Air strip. That then frees up some land in the TTC area. The TTC stuff then gets moved to that old parking lot area. Guess what you have then freed up space right next to the Polynesian... Along with this he says keep and eye on the site just north of the TTC as a new Theme park view resort could be popping up there in time for the 50th anniversary.
Jim also says that River Country DVC is back on the table. Since they have equipment onsite already they will move over there later in the year to demolish river country for the eventual DVC resort. The demolition does not mean construction on the new DVC resort would start but just so they have the site prepped for eventual construction.

When the speedway was closed and "parking upgrade" began to surface...I bet the farm and continue to that poly phase II is the ultimate reason.
Remember that the original DVC plans "leaked" have all now been built except the tower unit located on the edge of what currently is TTC/parking.
I don't really trust those types of things too much (well documented) UNLESS they make overwhelming sense and the shovels prove them right.
They have here.
They built a free standing gf building with the opportunity to retrofit old lodges and shrink rack...
They converted rack at poly with the opportunity to expand DVC...
Do we see a pattern here?
