Yes... I believe Disney needs a place for families with the much younger, smaller children to enjoy the less thrill type rides. There are very few attractions designed for the young kids scared of heights, drops, dark scary images. Toontown didnt entirely fit that and neither does Storybook Circus, but it is a quieter place set aside for families with the younger aged kids to enjoy...."unfortunately?"

Soo.... A playground?
Hollywood Studios has got one, so does Animal Kingdom!
But I see what you're saying

Originally Toon Town was going to be at the Studios between the Animation Courtyard and Rock 'n' Roller coaster and themed to Roger Rabbit. It didn't happen there and it ended up as Mickey's Toon Town in MK instead, but the space is still more or less open at DHS
Awesome picture and something I have been arguing for as well. Having a Toontown would be a great extension to Animation Courtyard; going with the history of DHS, it can be themed to where the cartoons "work" and film movies. Making that space onstage would enable a connection between the RNR part of Sunset Blvd and Animation Courtyard which would help flow around the park considerably by getting rid of some dead ends.
Copy the Roger Rabbit ride from DL (it was originally conceived for DHS ironically), add in another dark ride based on Mickey, maybe have a version of Goofy's paint house from Tokyo plus some M&Gs and a quick serve + merch and you are set with a small land that helps the park out considerable. It would bring some much needed family rides to the park and could be an easy affordable addition.
Make it happen!

They would have officially run out of ideas if they decided to bring back what was suppose to be a temporary place holder in the park. That would be one of the worst ideas and waste of money ever if they brought that back. Mickey's house? Sure, build something small somewhere for a meet and greet, but the entire "land"? No thank you!

pretty sure if they wanted to keep the land they would of kept the land.
Disney won't rebuild it and there are plenty of attactions at MK for the younger kids

The execution of the land at MK wasn't nearly as nice as what is at DLR. A well done Toontown would be a welcome addition -- but it should be in DHS, which could really use it. And ironically the original plans for a Roger Rabbit based on Toontown were developed for DHS.

DLR's Toontown is nice and well done while WDW's Toontown was originally Mickey's Birthday "Land" and was suppose to be temporary with structures that were built to be taken down (i.e. the circus tents). They then just added a few cheap buildings around those tents and called it Toontown. Completely different than DLR's and how it is set up and built.

I miss toontown fair so much! I really enjoy it and was sad to hear that the house got demolished. I wouldn't want them to put it any where else tho. It was fun while it lasted!
