The resort, located in the Pudong New District of Shanghai, is scheduled to open at the end of 2015 and will include Shanghai Disneyland, a Magic Kingdom-style park, two hotels and a shopping and dining area, according to a Disney news release.
"The construction team has been working very hard at the build site since groundbreaking and we are excited to see the progress every day", said Howard Brown, Senior vice president and project development executive of Shanghai Disney Resort.
The 18-meter steel column is the start of the vertical construction of the theme park. Most of the piling work for the theme park is already complete, a process that involved the installation of over 23,000 concrete piles. About 72,000 metric tons of steel will be needed to finished the construction for the 1.5 square mile resort.
