Earfell Tower to be removed

[SpaceMountain77]

And when they can figure out how to make it sound better than "Pixar's Star Jones Story Hollywood land"

Disney's Choose Your Own Adventure Park

When the park opened, it was tram followed by walking, with no way of exiting between the two. That was back when the tram queue was in Animation Courtyard.

When they opened up New York Street to pedestrians, they split the two up into two separate experiences. They *suggested* you ride the team first, but you could do them in either order.

Eventually they closed most of the walking tour, relocated the tram loading area and made the water tank the first half of the tram tour.

Yes, the walking tour was like watching paint dry. Except when paint dries, something actually happens.

Not sure when a new park identity is coming. I'd expect when the work is close to being over or is done.

I think the new name will come out once they start adding theming elements to Studios as part of the change. Similar to Disney Springs where they eventually started changing over light posts and small thematic elements that had the new name on it.

What will be the new park icon then?

Do a forum search for new park icon and you will find a lot of discussion on this question. There is no definitive answer at this point.

Appreciate that. It was a great game. I missed it though because I was teaching class. I say the rerun and was still on edge.

Cant find the post now, but someone suggested moving it to Disney springs, I think that would of been a cool idea since disney springs is suppose to be a town and all

and seeing the water towers use to be a way of recognizing towns from a distance.

right, otherwise, you couldnt land a T-65 inside it...

Disney's new security measures.. lol

The Disney Springs concept art does show a water tower, but it may actually be cheaper to build a new one then to carefully disassemble the current one, re-theme it, move it to DS and re-install it.

And it is more than likely a different size/scale.

very true, especially since most people wouldnt know nor would they care if its the same tower that came from DHS

The Earfell tower will always be the park icon for me. Same way as i still call it MGM. Never accepted th BAH as the proper icon and the TOT doesn't work either. The park is a thematic mess. Hopefully after all is finished smoother transitions will be achieved.
I'll just call it..

The Earfull tower will always be the park icon for me.

Well at least spell it right then!

 

[Uncle Lupe]

Well at least spell it right then!

Many times auto correct/fill is my downfall. Makes for some interesting text conversations.

At least I caught my soother transitions statement.

Anecdotally, I feel more here didn't know it was spelled Earffel than did. Was it on park maps?

Until the removal new game around I always thought it was Earful.

I imagine it wasn't clear that it was named after the Eiffel Tower. Doesn't really matter now, though! It's just ironic to see its "greatest fans" come out the woodwork.

Personally, I'm a big fan of Mikey Moose.

Disney's Hollywood Studios - Earful Tower
Walt Disney Studios, Paris - Earffel Tower

Disney's Hollywood Studios - Earful Tower
Walt Disney Studios, Paris - Earffel Tower

That would seem to make sense, but Disney uses them in reverse...

Internally I've seen both spellings used at DHS. Earful seems more prevalent, though Earffel appears to be the 'official' spelling (at least according to The Hub) Earfell is just plain wrong though.
