Would work perfect. I like how you could create a small Bayou area on the mountain side of cars as well.I shared this idea earlier, but I’ve clarified the concept. (Some armchair imagineering)
In the concept it appears they‘ve tried to keep the cars area facing north, with the south side made up of mostly rock work, maybe some frontier style buildings, and the back of the show buildings possibly to maintain the integrity of the frontier land street? The east side is mostly forest and rock work, the liberty belle dock building, and a small water feature which hopefully maintains the integrity of liberty square’s theming. And maybe on the west side they’ll build up the bayou aesthetic to work with tiana’s?
if they keep the northern section of ROA and dock the belle there, you’d have some killer views of big thunder and a nice natural area on a new waterfront to provide some scenery. Maybe some bridges crossing over the water flowing from tiana‘s bayou and the waterfall from cars?
possibly a mansion themed restaurant next to the haunted mansion show building to help transition to villains?
just some ideas… I know this likely won’t happen. But it seems like there is a path to doing this that doesn’t sacrifice the theming of each area, and may even be kind of cool.View attachment 809264
There will still be water and beautiful sightlines
False. The concept are shows them totally filling in the water and having the cars ride right outside the queue for Haunted Mansion.
The five stages of grief in action.

right? Maybe that water connects to the Bayou below tiana’sThis could be just copium talking, but…..the norther path adjacent to Thunder Mountain buts up against trees and….water?

If they do not stop after the horrible feedback, fire lots of people involved with the terrible decision, and move the Cars ride to behind Thunder where there is a TON of space - then Disney deserves to have empty parks.
No. It actually doesn’t show that. It shows the river removed. But it still shows water and waterfalls and there will be more that you can’t see from this art.
I think outside of the serious fans, the majority of casual park guests think Cars moving into RoA and TSI is a very good thing.
Outside of the echo chamber most of us live in, the feedback for this is not horrible. In fact it’s quite positive.
I keep seeing comments about how MK has the worst FL, but I honestly don't get it. What makes other FLs more special than MK's? I've been to DL and their FL seemed small and didn't have much more (if anything more) to offer than MK's. Of course, now it will with their shooting arcade, riverboat and island still intact (for now). But I felt underwhelmed with their FL compared to WDW's. Ours always felt so open to me and very "western expansion" like.
I think this is the part where I’m willing to wait and see. Along the existing path, I can see what they’re going for with the transition from the northeast to Appalachia to the Opry to the bayou to Yellowstone to the southwest. I think this can look good from existing Frontierland. Very different, but still good. I’ll have to see how effectively they hide all things Cars. But therein lies the issue, which is that they have to hide parts of it, regardless of how pretty the walls surrounding it end up being. It’s cordoned off because they acknowledge that there will be cognitive dissonance otherwise.
