About the backdrop, this has been said before. (And a quick look-up at WDSfans.com could have answered your question).

The big "poster" on the Studio Tram Tour station will be replaced by a backdrop of the Hollywood Hills!

The installation of the structure is going on, and it's quite impressive

Very impressive

The backdrop is still planned, however (take it with a grain of salt) I'm told that the tunnel idea has been scrapped, because the effect would'nt have been great. This I can surely understand, as I never understood how a 50 cm long tunnel would have been realistic in a forced perspective setting, and how the Tram Tour Station visible behind it wouldn't seem out of place at the end of the boulevard.

But then again, this is unconfirmed.

Wow, i love the elevator doors on the constuction fences!   Disney really know how to theme their fences!  

Does anyone have any close ups of the posters on the fences?

Although this should be talked about in the ToT topic, here is a closer taken photograph for you Charlotte

Also, here is another photograph of the sign which is also on the construction fences.

This structurs of the new hollywood bvd, looks realy great and impressiv. It´s much bigger than I´ve think about it.

One of the building permit signs outside the park (near Val d'Europe) mentions that some buildings will be 19 meters tall!  I guess that's the faux-store facade on the Art of Disney Animation side.  The other sign mentions decors with a 7.10 meters height, as those will probably be the ones in front of the Tower.

In fact, the biggest buildings will be the two main towers at the end of the boulevard.

Are they moving the entrace to the tram tour back at all, or is all this building being placed infront of where the entrance is now?

That was option nr. 3 and makes more sense...  :lol:

What are/where these buildings in real life?

Edit: Found out that the tall building on the left is the First National Bank building, is the other one Hollywood & Vine?

The passage will reopen as it was after construction finishes!

[Grandmath]

It is the Hollywood Broadway Building at Hollywood & Vine, but it is just a guessing as it looks like the same building. For the other one it is a sure thing
