    Mirror Disneyland - Version 2.0 - An Alternate History

    Bingo! Essentially, Mirror Disneyland started on the right foot, unlike the real Disneyland. Walt was given the blessing of size and budget from the get-go, hence the 200+ acre version of Disneyland covered earlier. And, as this is an alternate reality altogether, budget is no issue, and neither...

    Mirror Disneyland - Version 2.0 - An Alternate History

    Any feedback so far? Don't want to let this thread die from lack of interest! Theme Park Tourist, Ideal Build-Out and Yesterland were the biggest help with this update! *** As it stood, Walt's "Vacation Kingdom" held nothing more than Disneyland Park, the 100-acre Fantasy Lagoon and hiking...

    No, probably not! I'm considering adding it at some point, but maybe not in WESTCOT or Disneyland... Who knows what the alternate-dimension of Mirror Disneyland holds! This introduction to WestCOT Center borrows much text and inspiration from Maps of the Disney Parks (Text by Kevin and Susan...

    Mirror Disneyland - Version 2.0 - An Alternate History

    And now, a recap of everything found inside Mirror Disneyland. Take note that some referenced locations (including attractions) were not initially referenced in the original overview. They will be referenced at a later time, either in between WESCOT updates, before, or after. I promise, even...

    Mirror Disneyland - Version 2.0 - An Alternate History

    Tomorrowland Walt’s first Tomorrowland was dedicated with the hope for a peaceful and unified future. Where many people called Walt Disney an “Optimistic Futurist,” author and friend Ray Bradbury instead felt that Walt was an Optimal Behaviorist, “A term I use constantly,” Bradbury said. “I...

    Mirror Disneyland - Version 2.0 - An Alternate History

    How ironic, now we're on Page 2! So far we've done Main Street, Liberty Street, Adventureland, Frontierland, New Orleans Square, Folktale Forest, Galaxy's Edge, and Fantasyland all on Page 1. This means there are only a few lands left in Mirror Disneyland! I promised you a Jungle Cruise...

    Mirror Disneyland - Version 2.0 - An Alternate History

    It has a new home! But we'll leave that for another day; I'd hate to spoil it for you. ;) Also, I forgot to reply @S.P.E.W, but that Big Thunder sign is an actual sign found in Disneyland today. I think it is referring to the rest of Frontierland as compared to the Rainbow Ridge settlement...

    Mirror Disneyland - Version 2.0 - An Alternate History

    Fantasyland "The Age of Chivalry, Magic, and Make-Believe Reborn" Fantasyland was always portrayed as Walt's favorite, although much like children, no doubt he'd be hard pressed to pick a favored land in his Park. Fantasyland, however, was the realm of his already-famous and most-beloved...

    Mirror Disneyland - Version 2.0 - An Alternate History

    Okay, we're back! I think I'd like to limit myself to one day of posting a week. This way I don't overwhelm myself and give up. Sometimes too much of a good thing can be really bad for you. This will also help everyone catch up with the entire project and not lose out on seeing posts because...

    Mirror Disneyland - Version 2.0 - An Alternate History

    Liberty Street The incredible success of Disneyland led Walt and his Imagineers to realize that the Magic Kingdom needed more capacity, and fast. The considerably narrow Main Street required an alternative route to help with foot-traffic and congestion on peak days. A land in celebration of...

    A Disneyland tradition since 1955 is the Flag Retreat Ceremony held every evening, just before sundown, at the base of the Town Square flagpole. The moving yet understated ceremony serves as a reminder to us all that Walt Disney himself wanted Disneyland to honor the ideals, the dreams and the...

    I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! I've been away for some time. In fact, I logged in just yesterday to find a number of messages asking "When will Mirror Disneyland be finished?" "What's the hold up with Mirror Disneyland?" "Where's the rest of Mirror Disneyland?" So, how would one address these...
