Hey OTPN,

Not to burst your bubble or anything but the new area will have no ties to tangled. I am a construction worker in the area who has worked on this project since we tore down the older skyway building. It will be strictly a new rest area with two themed building (one for men, one for women). In front of the area will be a large tree covered stroller parking area. There will be a small, meandering path that goes down to where the Haunted Mansion is. There it will cross over a small wooden bridge that crosses over a small stream that connects to a small waterfall (to act as a buffer/transitionary line between Liberty Square and Fantasyland). If you look at the actual buildings in your shots you can even see the pipes being laid in the foundation for the bathrooms.

That tower that you speak of is just going to be a standard looking tower themed like the towers all over fantasyland.

Once again sorry! Keep up with the great updates though!

That's pretty funny.

That poster didn't happen to be a 17yr old that works in entertainment at MK and lives in Isleworth by any chance....

So the thing on the blueprints that's labeled "Rapunzel's Tower" is just a standard tower like, "the towers all over fantasyland"?

maybe the "rapunzel's tower" meant the place where they will put her, Or it was scrapped all together??

Tangled meet n greets n towers? I missed this discussion!

No meet and greets....just tower. And fancy pavement. And an interesting seating area.

 

[marni1971]

Exactly. Tangled towers and M&G areas made me spit coffee!

Fancy bathrooms. Nothing more, nothing less.

Well, the tower is Tangled...and the plaza on front of the toilets is named after that long-haired chick...but other than that...

Right, I'm not sure where the meet and greet stuff came from, but the Tower is on the plans I've seen.

Two different people, really.
The first post is cbconglom, the second is quoting a comment some goofball posted on Orlando Theme Park News.

You mean the toilets, or another interesting seating area?

I think the meet and greet was just wishful thinking. I think before we even knew that the area would be restrooms people where speculating that it would be a good spot of a M&G.

Wow. Construction workers amaze me....

If the person actually is a construction worker on the project, they work with dirt, and have only seen the site plans. If he had seen the architectural plans, he'd have a clue.

Heh.

Blueprints are always misleading. Architects put words on there that don't apply, just to see if people catch them.

Yeah, it really is.

D-Zone. New type of outdoor seating area. Cast-in-place tables and chairs resembling barrels, tree trunks, etc. Fans with misters. Perhaps some shade.

I posted some time ago that it was possible they could have meet n greets for Rapunzel there. From what we know now, she won't be going there and will be in Fairy Tale Hall.

Guess I need to watch the film again then. I envisaged something taller...
