so does Heritage Manor Gifts not exist anymore? I don't see any Americana merchandise like what was in there before. The sign just says "Art of Disney"

The Antique Store in Liberty Square didn't either, but it was around for decades before closing.
The Paul Pressler attitude of "every square inch must turn a high margin" didn't affect World Showcase as badly (thanks to many stores being run by third parties), but that doesn't mean it isn't sad to see it happen here.
They could have built another Art of Disney location elsewhere in the park. Even using the empty retail space in Canada would have been a better choice.

Heritage Manor Gifts was reduced to a kiosk located outside.
