Seriously. I've never been a fan of those Philly t-shirts either.....







But then again, I'm a Red Sox fan.

Are they going to do that all the way along Main Street?

-sigh-

Why is this happening? Not opposed to it, of course, just wondering...

My guess is to move parade watchers closer to the parade to allow more room for people to walk behind them. I can see the need for it, but it looks kind of crappy.

The sidewalk has been extended into the street

When was this taken?

 

[devoy1701]

after 39 1/2 years they suddenly need to extend the sidewalk into the street a bit?

I have a feeling the sidewalks are still going to be just as crowded. This just means people can use larger strollers!

The photo was taken yesterday.

This sidewalk will accomodate wheelchairs as well as parade viewing when construction walls are erected around the confectionary.

:brick:Absolutely unnecessary.

No, I'm sorry, but I don't think the girl at the mid left walking towards us will ever get her leg replaced. She seems to be doing well without it. And is it really Disney's responsibility? :ROFLOL:

Seriously though, are you talking about the extension itself or the poor matching with the existing sidewalk. I don't get it. I guess I don't see a problem that needs to be fixed.

Okay, that actually kinda makes sense. Hopefully thats what its purpose will be, because if they were to do that the length of Main Street it would be kinda ugly looking.

You would think they would use a temporary wooden or metal ramp/sidewalk for this, not install a slab of concrete. Its kind of odd.

 

[stphnbogert]

it'll probably be colored and worked into the old sidewalk soon.

It is only temporary. It will be removed after the confectionary rehab is complete.

:lol:

That's good...I have to admit that I wasn't really sure what I was looking for either when I first looked at the picture.

When is the Confectionery going to be refurbed?? :shrug:
