[Mike730]

I hope this project is as dead as this thread?

Or bring these back

Cool. I don't believe I saw construction so it's interesting to see the physical boardwalk there before the resort. Unless that was the first phase.

Did we ever figure out what this was for exactly?

Potential expansion of Swan and Dolphin.

So not a 5th Gate then? Thanks!

New version of Tower of Terror starring the Guardians of the Galaxy.

A 5th Gate would need a lot more land then that tiny little parcel!

It would just be a gate.

It would just be a gate.

But it would be 100 day admission

Watch it be that the daily resort fee is going up by $5.

For a limited time only, they will be selling height-testing balloons (slightly used). *WHILE SUPPLIES LAST

...and increasing the resort fee by $5.

 

[Unplugged]

Are they finally going to use those secret buried monorail pylons and knock out the black spaces in the top of the resorts for a Star Wars themed transport from EPCOT to the park formerly known as DHS formerly known as DMGMS?

How I wish they'd paint those block or rooms a different color to kill off that urban legend.

It certainly sounds like it! All stars are shining in that direction.

Tom Staggs, I think, or some suit, talked about how well the hotels were doing and how they were considering expanding. I thought it was just a lot of fluff talk but I guess not.

So yeah, this is pretty neat. Also, I must've missed it, but did resort fees actually become a thing?

The Swan and Dolphin is not owned nor is it managed by Disney.

They do charge a nightly resort fee and also charge for parking. Joke if you will, but the S&D is by far the best bang for your Buck as far as hotels on Disney property go IMO. It's a well-run resort.
