I don't see Disney announcing a closing at D23 unless it's in conjunction with the announcement of something new coming to the space.
I saw it on Facebook saying that it might be the end for this attraction, someone commented that it might have to do with the Toy Story Land entrance space, for those who were hoping for a new attraction, I'm sorry

There are definitely removing the building attached to OMD, but I have not heard about OMD being removed. Maybe it's a temporary closure that the rumor mill is turning into a permanent one.

This site just posted an article about this...

but it's entirely based on an article at The Disney Blog that was posted two years ago.

Asking for a link is hardly being a jerk.
Friends don't let friends believe rumors started on Facebook. Or on Twitter, or from tram drivers or bus drivers. 
Now, if someone on these forums who is well-respected and has a proven track record of posting reliable information says One Man's Dream's days are numbered, well, then I'll start mourning. Until then, I'll take this with several grains of salt.

Stop parroting stuff.
If you want to have a discussion about something, cite the source with your postulation/rumor. If you are not the source of something, cite your source.
"I heard on Facebook...." without any cites is just making things worse.
Class of '16 keeping it up...

It is planned to leave as far as I know. I don't think it needs to be demolished however.

I thought the original plan was to close this, with most of the materials from it going to the Walt Disney museum? But that was a long time ago

No, but I also don't think it will remain in five years.

Yeah, me too, though I'm no insider. I wish the attraction would stay. I know that probably Walt wouldn't give a darn if it stays or goes, but it just seems fitting that a tribute to him within his own parks, one that tells his very inspirational story, is fitting. Maybe there'll be a tribute to him in the Mickey ride someplace, but it won't be the same...
