Buena Vista Street (2012)

What do you think they could use the sun from the sun court for, i thought of having it in a parade or have it rise behind the Carthaway Theater every morning and at night comes back up with the projection of the moon on it.

I they could use it to occupy some landfill space.

^I think that's about all they can do it with it, lol.

It would probably have to be dismantled piece by piece and then put back together (ie: not be worth the cost) but I could see it being a pretty cool piece at the Paradise Pier hotel... maybe in the pool area?

i know dca's construction schedule is pretty much laid out, but why couldn't they just close down dca for all of january 2010 to get some of these projects completed, especially the new turnstiles and the tracks for the red car.

i mean if disneyland can close down for a day (may 04, 2005) as busy as that park is, why not dca for just a month?

Closing a park for a whole month and loose revenue on it is not the same as closing a park for a huge Media blitz for one day.

Its also not the same to have a few employees not show up for a day compared to having hundreds of them be layed off for a month

Is till think tehy should consider finding a museum or airport where they could donate the sun, the large entrance mural and the letters.

I actually had an idea for the sun while at Epcot last month. The ceiling for the Land pavilion is fairly bare. It holds the mechanics for the hot air balloon "chandeliers" to drift up and down (which sadly aren't used anymore), but they could be worked around. Here's what it looks like currently:



I think somehow building the sun into the ceiling would look great and complete the aesthetic. The problems I'm unsure of are size, and if the structure can support the weight.

I don't think the sun is a total waste, just really suckish as the park's hub. They could use it as a fountain/play area by the Paradise Pier Hotel pool, that would be cool. But it's probably not worth the money.

I hope they find a good use for it. I think its pretty cool.

Wasn't it designed to last for a thousand years, or is that just an urban myth?

[disneysnout]

I believe it's suppose to be a prtners statue with young Walt w/ a suitcase and Mickey Mouse.
