This looks like a crater in the middle of Disney World. MSN Virtual Earth says it is Bay Lake, so maybe its the original location of Bay Lake before the Disney made it bigger?

I don't think it is a crater. I think it is a mound. It is on a concrete pad. Look at the trucks parked on the SE corner of the pad. They throw shadows to their west sides. If this was a crater then the east wall of the crater would be in shadow. Instead the west edge is in shadow as it would be if this were a mound. That would explain the run-off to the west side of the pad and the smaller mound to the NW. This may be a pile of mulch or manure for the gardens. Is that a chipper just NE of the mound?

Bird's Eye View shows other mounds of dirt piled here too.
