The Sorcerer's Hat, once the icon of Disney's Hollywood Studios, continues to vanish piece by piece from the theme park's central hub.

Thursday marked two weeks since crews at Walt Disney World began dismantling the 122-foot-tall hat. Walls went up around the structure on Jan. 7.

The Sorcerer Hat's removal will restore the once-clear view of the replica of Grauman's Chinese Theatre that houses the Great Movie Ride, which Disney will soon refurbish thanks in part to a deal with Turner Classic Movies.

Though some have speculated Disney might save and reuse the Sorcerer's Hat somewhere else at a later date, crews dismantling the hat appear to have cut into the structure in a way that doesn't seem like it can be rebuilt again.

Many guests visiting Disney's Hollywood Studios over the last two weeks have posted photos online of the slowly-disappearing Sorcerer's Hat, including this tweet Wednesday by WDWNT.com:

The Sorcerer's Hat debuted in 2001 to coincide with Disney's "100 Years of Magic" celebration honoring Walt Disney's 100th birthday. At the time, many Disney fans assumed the hat would be a temporary addition, like Mickey Mouse's magic wand that once stood on the side of Epcot's Spaceship Earth.

The hat, however, stayed up for another 13 years.

Disney has not said anything about what would replace the Sorcerer's Hat as the official icon of Hollywood Studios. Before the hat was added in 2001, the park's icon was the Earful Tower, a water tower adorned with Mickey ears. The tower, however, is located in the area of the now-closed Studio Backlot Tour and currently not viewable by guests inside the theme park.
