Main Street, USA (Disneyland Resort)
From MouseInfo
Contents |
Main Street, USA is an iconic land that can be found in every single Disneyland style park. This land is modeled after a quaint turn of the 19th century midwestern town. It is loosely based on the Marceline, Missouri hometown of Walt Disney himself.
Many of the buildings on Main Street feature faux business names but the proprietors of each of the businesses are real people. The Windows of Main Street are given as an honor to people who have contributed significantly to the Disney company and most usually to the Disney Parks themselves.
