Permit Filed for Construction in Innoventions East

A permit filed with Orange County this week has the address for Innoventions East in Epcot’s Future World with the description “Project G: 202-1”.

Project Gamma is the name Imagineering uses when they refer to the project involving the complete reimagining of the entrance of Epcot, as well as the center of Future World.

While the patent doesn’t get into the details of the work, it was filed by Walt Disney Imagineering, which indicates the work is meaningful and not just “general conditions” work. Electric Umbrella and MouseGear, both located in Innoventions East, are closing this winter as part of the reimagining of Future World into World Celebration, World Discovery, and World Nature.

Electric Umbrella is slated to close November 24, 2019, per last available operating hours.
