Apparently the buildings of Safari Village have been getting makeovers.  Here is the Island Mercantile from two years ago before modification.

Disney's Animal Kingdom

Wildlife...Adventure...Thrills...The Unexpected...Conservation - all of these things are a part of what makes Disney's Animal Kingdom "A New Species of Theme Park," opened on April 22, 1998.
