Imagineer Zach Riddley Shares Look at Custom Metal Tiles for Dreamers Point at EPCOT

In his newest Instagram post, Imagineer Zach Riddley shows off some of the detailed touches the crews are adding to the festival area, currently under construction at EPCOT.

The close-up look at features some of the custom metal ground tiles that will pave a pathway between Dreamers Point and the center of World Celebration. Each of the metal tiles interlocks to form the pathway through the gardens that will make up part of the festival area.

“We’ve started installation of our custom metalwork that will form a gracefully curved pathway from Dreamers Point to the center of World Celebration,” Riddley said. “You may have seen early examples of our thematic metalwork elements with the new EPCOT utility covers – eagle eyed fans can likely spot more than one of these throughout our new park neighborhoods.”

“These walkway elements will include metal panels of weathered steel, aka corten steel, which will cure to form a rich orange-hued patina – providing a distinctive color and a protective corrosion barrier to the solid cast metal panels. These panels will also serve as protective grating for a large allée of trees that will follow the architectural curvature of the Connections Café and Eatery and Creations shop façades,” Riddley said.
