Just one month ago today, we visited Epcot when the removal of the “Leave A Legacy” monoliths began as part of a transformation that is currently underway for the park’s entrance.
The beginning phase involved the walls pictured above surrounding the monoliths as the removal began. But now?
Those walls are down, and guests can see the results of the work, as the monoliths that greeted park guests to their right upon entry in Epcot for years are now entirely gone.
Leave A Legacy photo walls are still in place to your left upon entry, though we anticipate the removal of these pieces taking place soon.
As Disney previously announced, the Leave A Legacy photos are being moved to a new setting just outside the park’s gateway to make way for new pathways, green spaces and a newly reimagined fountain as part of the guest entry experience.
So, it’s likely we may see walls up again around here sometime soon…
… as construction begins in earnest for what’s to come next to Epcot’s entrance!

So far so good! Can’t wait for the complete transformation.
looks so much better than with those ugly things.
Is the tram entrance back to normal or is it still a really long walk from the tram to the entrance?
Tracy, the tram is still quite a hike because entrance construction is still in progress.

Thank you Kris for sharing this good and inspiring Stuff. Keep sharing!
About time. I ‘ve hated those things since they were first installed.
To everyone that “hates” the leave a legacy… a lot of parents invested money to leave that memory for their kids. My husband and sister in law have a couple of pictures there. Those legacies came with a lifetime contract that they will be there forever. What may seem ugly to you, means a whole lot to those who got that gift from a parent or relative.
Lisa, the good news is, the Leave a Legacy is not going away forever. Disney has said they’ll relocate the structures to an area outside of the gate.
