Disney's American Dream

[Disney Fan 242]

Hi,
I'm new to the forums and some time ago I got an idea for a possible blue-sky 5th gate to WDW.

I haven't really developed the idea because I don't know much about the theme I've chosen so I would really apreciate suggestions.

The name of the park would be something along the lines of Disney's American Dream and would feature lands themed around important places of the US

Currently I imagine the park having 4 lands:
- A main street themed around Broadway
- Times Square (hub)
- A New York land
- Cars land / Route 66
- Liberty land (I know MK has Liberty square but this would be a bit more themed around the War)

Other lands that could exist in the parks are:
- Gravity Falls / Oregon
- Princess and the Frog / New Orleans
- Lilo and Stitch / Hawaii
- Some kind of Natural Parks

¿What would you add or change in the park?

I know some people might think that this idea could fall into the same problems as DCA but I don't think so because:
1.- It is in a wider scale, the entirety of the US
2.- It would, ideally, have a big budget (Not as DCA)

Springfield could be perfect as the park will have the Simpsons themed rides.

Is it because Springfield has no location in the US?

Hello and welcome! This is a strong and bold idea to start with.

To avoid some of the early problems with DCA, how about expanding your focus to American history instead of America today. That’s largely what DCA did with its grand reinvention. That lets you use romance, nostalgia, and “the hard facts that have shaped America.”

Consider looking into Disney’s America, a never-made theme park from Eisner’s 90s era with a similar historic theme. Learn from the mistakes they made.

Disney's America

Disney's America was a proposed theme park that was to have been built by the Walt Disney Company in Haymarket, Virginia in the early 1990s. The park was to have been dedicated to the history of the United States; however, amid opposition from citizen's groups, the project was cancelled in 1994...

Also check out Freedomland U.S.A., a Disneyland knockoff from the 1960s which was divided up by historic era and geographical location.

Good luck with this project! I look forward to seeing it develop.

Most Marvel characters are based in NY, as is Oliver and Company. Springfield would work as the shopping area similar to Ikispiari. Hollywood has plenty of opportunities for IP, and I could see America Sings working somewhere.

Thank you but my approach was more of an "America today" rather than the "Yesterday America"
I only think that the Revolucionary war should be there because making a park about any aspect of America, it doesn't really make sense not including how America was actually started

Hello and welcome!

A San Francisco Wharf area would be a nice transition from Oregon and National Parks of the West Coast.

Other than that I like your selections here.

There’s also Hawaii for Lilo & Stitch.

Wizville from Disney Channel's the Proud Family was in California. That would be cool to see the Proud Family dark ride.
