'Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar' concept art and construction at Disney Springs The Landing

[alissafalco]

My total experience at Downtown Disney/Disney Springs consists of dining on arrival day, activating Photopass and seeing if the Disney Lego Store has something different from the Mall of America Lego Store. So....I really don't care what they do with DownTown Disney or whatever they call it this week.

Well that's a lot more than my DTD experience which consists of reading about it here. I don't bother ever going.

I think they should call it:

I don't mind the name. If the food is good I couldn't care less what the restaurant is called. Food makes or breaks a vacation. And our trips always include DTD.

I don't disagree I just thought it would be fun.

I can't stand how generic these names are.

I disagree - I'm a fan of the names so far.

I agree, it sticks with the theming. If Disney Springs is supposed to be a town then the locals would refer to these places for what they are, The Boathouse, The Hanger, The Observatory, etc.

Agreed, I'd much prefer simple names than things like "Expedition Everest: Legend of the Forbidden Mountain"

The work has begun to build "The hangar" let and where to put it in Disney Springs?

What was the animation which featured a seaplane?

I want to say it was just certain episodes of Duck Tales, but I'm having a memory blank.

Ha! Definitely need a Don Karnage, Baloo, and Launchpad M&G here...

I'd be VERY disappointed if there is not some sort of subtle Talespin references here. It seems ripe for pulling a few names or pictures from and putting them as "props" around the restaurant.

As this is most likely not a Disney-owned restaurant, the odds of that seem slim.

That's the one....though I also was confusing it slightly with
Launchpad McQuack

A seaplane hangar could also provide a tie-in (should they so choose) to bring in some of the Talespin characters.

that would be cool and fun, DD/DS doesn't really have any character experiences. I realize they do this so people will pay to get into the parks, but Talespin is pretty old so its not like it would distract from the current crop of characters.. and little kids dont really care who they see just as long as they have fun.

Ohh, Lets see, we've so far got "The Landing", home to "The Boathouse" and "The Hanger". I'll guess that the train themed one will be "The Station". Maybe the auto themed one can be "The Garage".
I'm looking forward to seeing the official name change press release when they change it to "The Disney Springs"!

the names do sound all rather abiguous, but i know there trying to go with a classic americana theme

Strictly speaking, the train restaurant should be The Roundhouse in keeping with places where boats, planes, or trains are parked.

i love how much thought everyones putting into restaurant thinking lol

All they needed to do was make 1 restaurant, call it PLANES, TRAINS, and AUTOMOBILES, and instant classic...

done done and done lol

I can't stand how generic these names are.

As this is most likely not a Disney-owned restaurant, the odds of that seem slim.

theres always a way if there was a will, disney could liscence the characters to the restaurant legally speaking, though i know it wont happen

Steve that concept art of the Landing looks awesome and thanks for sharing!

 

[disney4life2008]

I prefer Hyperian Wharf

 

[JEANYLASER]

Disney Springs is more better than Hyperian Wharf!

New photos over at the SavePleasureIsland blog showing construction on The Landing, and photos of The Boat House and The Hangar, including one which surprised me:
