Monstropolis Takes Shape: New Aerial Photos Reveal Progress at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
New aerial photos are giving us a bird’s eye peek at the transformation happening at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Monstropolis is officially coming out of hiding. Fresh images shared by bioreconstruct show steady construction progress on the upcoming Monsters, Inc. themed land, including major work on the long rumored suspended coaster and surrounding structures.

From the back side of the park, you can clearly spot the large tan construction zone just beyond Galaxy’s Edge. This area is home to the Monsters, Inc. coaster, and the latest photos show the gravity building really starting to take form. New concrete flooring has been poured, forms are in place, and large amounts of fill dirt now cover sections that were exposed in earlier updates. Even electrical conduits are being buried, a sure sign this project is moving beyond the early stages.
One of the more exciting details is the emerging outline of the guest facing side of the main building. The sharp angles and footprint visible from above are lining up closely with the previously released concept art. From the front of the park, Monstropolis construction now clearly occupies the upper left portion of the aerial view, while nearby changes include the removal of the PizzeRizzo and Gonzo’s Royal Flush signage as the area continues its transformation.

Construction activity is also ongoing over in the Animation Courtyard, which has been quietly evolving alongside the Monstropolis project. While Disney has not announced an opening timeline yet, the pace of work suggests things are staying on track. If the scream factory keeps humming along like this, Hollywood Studios could be welcoming guests to Monstropolis sooner rather than later.
