No, the two projects appear to be on separate time tables.

Also considering Disney's current construction speed, they are likely at least 2 -3 years out on the hotel as they have yet to even break ground.

Probably going to depend upon how quickly things get done...I would think that they would want to have the land open prior to the US Thanksgiving holiday, but I wouldn't expect much before that.

"late fall" is their buffer term. Like when I tell my kids I'll get to something "in a moment". Technically, a moment is 90 seconds, but in our home, it's whenever I can get to it. ;)
