EPCOT Morocco Pavilion redevelopment

[LittleBuford]

looks like they even shortened the fountain for...some reason

I think it’s because they raised the surrounding pavement. I really hope the pavement refurbishment isn’t why they decided to alter the fountains and planters. The loss far outweighs any gain.

Getting rid of the trees also makes the area look more empty

Trees are likely coming back soon. Although that won’t fix the rest of this mess.

Anyone getting 90’s mall vibes?

Glad the trees are likely returning, while it won’t fix everything it will help.

If WDW has anyone decent left managing these parks, they will put the walls up in the next few weeks, start repairing things, and have a few seminars led by experienced Imagineers to prevent this from happening again.

I really wish this story could achieve the kind of exposure needed for the powers that be at Disney to actually care. Unfortunately, I can’t see that happening.

It just bothers me so much the singing of authenticity from the rafters in new parks and hotels projects and then things. And you know the response would be, "That's not my department...". Disney has become the worst version of modern corporation in so many ways.

And, yes. I know it's profitable and guests don't care. But this comes at an expense regardless.

Similar colors to the TTC, which also still looks of the period.

this was my own photo but do you all like the recent paint job? I think its way too dark and over textured as if it were at AK. I just don't care for it but wondered how you all feel. I prefer how it originally looked but then I prefer the original cinderella castle too so....

I'd have to see it compared to real structures in Morocco

Google “Kutubiyya Mosque” for some examples.
