Where are you getting your information from that construction will be starting in April 2018? That is about a year early from everything I am hearing as of late. If there is something formal you've seen or heard with an actual construction start date announced, it would be good to share that.

In your reference of "existing structure" it appears as though you are referring to the Beach Villas at Ko Olina. Those are the two towers located at the center of lagoon 2 and between the two vacant lots. These consist of 247 privately owned condos, and the Beach Villas at Ko Olina Association. It is not going anywhere and will not become part of Atlantis. Atlantis is slated to only be on the vacant parcel between Beach Villas and Disney and not sure why people are saying it will start construction soon. There is no activity whatsoever on either of the vacant lots. What I'm hearing lately is that it's unlikely any construction will even start this year. It's hard to know as nothing formal announced.

No construction date has been set that I have heard of and everything I am hearing currently is that we are not likely to see any construction occurring until 2019. Since nothing has been formally announced, it's mostly speculation that is happening online. I do have some good sources since I'm in the resort almost every day.

Once there is a formal date lined up, I'm sure we will see something come out from Ko Olina. This is a massive development so the paperwork, permitting and everything else involved is going to take some time I'm sure. Once anything changes I'll jump back on here to post updates.

Considering the size of an Atlantis, it would seem to need the two vacant tracts with the structure in the middle.

The existing structure is not part of the Atlantis development, you're correct about it just being the vacant land between that structure and Disney. I totally agree with you and I wouldn't be surprised if that happens despite the plans they have currently announced...

This is just speculation but I expect that construction would be taking place a year from now so noise would be possible...

No movement on the land since the chapel came down in July.
Does anyone have an update on construction progress, there seems to be nothing happening at all, no news, permits etc.

Land was clear on 20th July. Does anyone know when construction will begin?

Local source tells me that the chapel is now gone and fences have been removed. The land is now clear.
