Fantasy land facades...

I was watching a you tube video from Fastpass Facts about changes to the parks over the years. And one thing that stuck out to me was how the Fantasyland facades in Anaheim were changed years ago to the more elaborate ones they have now.

Does anyone know if the Magic Kingdom will ever get these facade updates? It is odd to have these generic tent facades, when the rest of the park is so well themed.

Disneyland’s Fanatsyland was rebuilt to get those facades. Due to the narrowness by Small World and Pan there wouldn’t be enough room / they wouldn’t be visible enough.

I’ve always advocated removing the Small World front roof and going the DLP route. Have the show building facade outside and the whole ramp / load platform system individually covered. It’d open up the area no end (not to mention Small World Paris has the same exterior ride layout)

Gotcha....that makes sense. I would think they could at least have different styles from each other. The tent look does appear cheap.
