I dunno... I was never fond of the old purple either but I'm not sure this is any better - About the same for me but I think I just don't think much of the signage overall. Was this the original signage when Epcot opened? I did a little googling but can't seem to find any others.

They need to completely replace most of this. The architecture is dated and clunky. The TTC should be modern and sleek.

It looks great! Can’t wait to see it in person!

Yeah, it's been long overdue for the TTC to get a modernized look.

This has to be the unfinished look. Disney wouldn't leave it like this.

It’s obviously unfinished. It’s laughable that some on here are unsure of that

Yeah. Paint jobs aren't enough. The TTC is the by far the ugliest spot in the entire resort and sets such a poor first impression for what is often the first park most people visit.

I was watching @marni1971’s transportation video and there is footage of the old ferry sign. I’m assuming the monorail signage at the TTC was the same.

I think I can safely say after seeing more than enough paint jobs of late that Disney was clearly inspired by the color scheme of:

Not sure of the exact year, but the Transportation and Ticket Center colors were meant to match the Disney road signs when the "Disney Transport" brand was introduced (1989 I think, but I'm open for correction). That's also when the buses and trams moved from the orange and brown colors.
Now that the buses have moved on, it's time for the TTC to change as well. Unfortunately, it's going to take more than some character wraps to dress this area up. Maybe some classic topiaries? It doesn't need to be flashy; it just needs to not look dated.

Every time I see those signs (the old paint job) I think it makes Magic Kingdom look dated and cheap. As a guest, it's pretty much the first part of Disney you see, so it's gotta look nice. That's just my opinion. Glad they decided to repaint!
New color scheme coming to the Disney World Monorail station at the Transportation and Ticket Center

The new shades of blue are being added inside the monorail station.

As long as the station itself stays free of gold, I’m ok with this.

I'm blue da-ba-dee-da-bu-dai....
Seriously, though - the new design is just fine. Nothing crazy. I agree the area could stand for a larger update - but it's nice to get a fresh coat of paint. The purple had nostalgia for me - but it was from a different decade, no doubt.

Very happy that the 90’s purple is going away. This is a good change.

TTC would look good with an EPCOT main entrance re do, but this is nice as well.
