What I don't get is the green palate color just like at Grand Floridian they chose a mint toothpaste looking that just doesn't fit or match the resort. Boardwalk's color is maroon!Screendoor reopened today. Interesting color choices
You should consider applying to be a jungle cruise skipperI heard about a cast member accidentally backing up into a meat slicer. He got a little behind in his work.
Another location they have downgraded for the worst. Screen Door is now half the size it use to be (update: a wall was removed since being there yesterday but still), barren, half the merch it use to have and not nearly as nice, same could be said for the store in the GF. They are making sure to strip everything that had any nice design, downsize it, and use the same left over paint. I don't think Imagineering is part of any this process anymore.What I don't get is the green palate color just like at Grand Floridian they chose a mint toothpaste looking that just doesn't fit or match the resort.

The prevailing aesthetic. Thanks, Gensler!Very generic looking.
I think sometimes the photo lens used makes the area look wider and emptier than in personI actually don't generally mind it, but there's something weird about the dearth of merchandise displays throughout the space. Maybe it's just photos versus reality, but it doesn't read as adequately populated.
Wider and emptier isn't the problem. It's the continuation of taking a lot of the theming away and making it all the same. It looks no different than a gift shop you find in most major hotelsI think sometimes the photo lens used makes the area look wider and emptier than in person
It’s doing pretty well. Thematically? Up for debate. However, as mentioned lots on this forum, the boardwalk is missing a proper quick service, the deli isn’t built to function as that. (As I am typing this there are people behind me having this exact conversation about lack of proper QSR at this resort) I’m walking over to check out the shops and will report back.Anyone know how the CBS is doing? I didn't think it was a good fit but been wrong at least the times today so![]()
The merchandising issues could just be prep for when tariffs hit as so much of the clothing, accessories, keepsakes, pins etc are sourced from outside the US and any substantial price hikes are going to hit sales turnover.Another location they have downgraded for the worst.
