Paradise Pier Construction and Retheming

[HSM fans]

Maybe they'll replace Maliboomer with a JJ type ride.

I never understood why JJ would need to be removed. They could easily redress it too. If Maliboomer is staying, why bother removing JJ? Reducing capacity does not make sense in a park in need of more attractions.


And that little beach area with the boats is already there. It is nothing new. Look at an aerial of the area on google maps and you'll see it.

It appears to me that the concept shows the shoreline being a bit more natural and dressed up.

I think they should add more sand to make it look more like a beach.

DCA is not experiencing an attendance issue, but an image issue, which is why things are getting re-themed and/or plussed.

When the demand is there then it is necessary to have every little crowd soaking attraction possible. But until then I think it is fine to sacrifice a few duds here and there.

The reason why DCA can go by so fast isn't because there are not enough attractions; DCA actually has more attractions than many of the other secondary Disney parks. The reason is because there are not enough people queued up for these attractions. Rather than waiting an hour for Tower of Terry, you only wait "13" minutes, for example, and this is an attraction people expect and are willing to wait an hour for, an hour that is supposed to be added to their overall DCA visit.

DCA has the attraction count necessary for large crowds, it's just that people are just not wanting to visit DCA. Why? Disney believes it's an image and poor word of mouth problem, which is what they are trying to fix. But don't get me wrong, there is plenty of room for more attractions as more people come, and hopefully the quantity of higher quality attractions, as well as the new theme overlays, will change DCA's poor image and reputation and attract the masses.

DCA might have a respectable attraction count, but much of the lineup is made up of attractions like JJ, MM, Orange stinger, Malliboomer, Golden Zephyr, tucks, fliks Flyers and francis Ladybug Boogie.

That is the problem!!!

They need to increase their "Disney Quality" attractions count, which is extremely low.

So does Fantasyland, apparently. All those dark rides belong in a carnival. That's where they came from. Don't forget that carousel, Dumbo, Casey Jr. As well as Astro Orbiter, among other things.

I still think that area that is used by JJ, the Sandy area and the water play area could be leveld flattened out and then maybe the parade route realigned and another nice structure built there with a nice attraction

Tayati, that picture of the stinger to zephyr area is from before the park opened.

It is nothing new and pretty much shows things the way they currently are.

Hopefully some sort of detail will be added, like the rockwork seen in the back of this concept for the swings:

I agree. A nice sea wall where there are currently just concrete curbs would be much better.
