Do you have any general ideas for said park yet? Layout, style, lands?

 

[Disney Warrior]

So possible lands could be Main Street, Adventureland, Frontierland, fantasyland, and Tomorrowland. Any others?

A New Orleans Square/Liberty Square/Edison Square/Discovery Bay land could be a good accent area.

I was thinking of a Wildlife Land

 

[wazowski_216]

the style is going to be MK and i am currently thinking of the icon

That would be nice and unique. I suggest a Music Land too.

 

[wazowski_216]

for sure

 

[wazowski_216]

i was also thinking of an indoor world showcase like the original idea that Card Walker changed. This would be to better fit Canada

 

[Twilight_Roxas]

It could be called Victoria Square.

It could be called Victoria Square.

I like that

 

[Orange Cat]

Trust me i should not be anywhere near a “Disneyland Canada” given I’ve tried that twice & both of my attempts have failed haha

 

[wazowski_216]

we can make it work

If I was doing a park...

I’d like to try to do something different than the usual Castle Park format. I would have the lands begin halfway on main street on either side. And each of the lands could be variations of the usual ones.

Sorry for the crude photoshop, it isn't perfectly to scale.

A more squared-off shape is a good motif for the park. One land bigger than the others is also cool. I myself have experimented with things like a land with an overall darker tone, a Adventureland untouched by human hands, Toontown, etc.

I agree with this to an extent. The land layout and squarish shape are good, but I don’t think having land entrances from Main Street would be a good idea, simply because it gives you less control over how guests experience the park.

In Disneyland, almost every land has a major entrance and a major exit. For instance, Adventureland has an entrance in the Hub and an exit into Frontierland. The only possible ways for guests to enter the land are from the “entrance” and the “exit”. By adding more entrances, you can’t control what the guest sees as he enters the land.

And without Main Street leading exclusively to the Hub, you lose the “grand entrance.” Instead of walking up MS to the castle, you could turn off of it and go somewhere else. It diminishes the effect, and to an extent makes the park more confusing to navigate.
