New color scheme on the Future World breezeway entrances

It's a very ugly green in person. The blue actually looks decent; it's the same as the Kim Possible booth on the bridge.

No, a more temporary sign was originally on a separate stand. The permanent one was added around a year ago (maybe 1 1/2 years).


I don't remember. I wasn't living here at the time and didn't pay attention.

Did it look the same?:wave: I swear I saw it in 07.

Ah, thanks anyway...Anyone know? I would think that it's fairly quick, and demo would be quicker...:D:lookaroun

I never understood why the giant Innoventions marquees were removed and replaced with the understated signs and line green paint job around the entrance doors.

The new breezeway color schemes are not that bad. They will be even better once all those tarps are gone! They will provide a small splash of color in a generally monochromatic area. Here's to no more tarps!

:lol: I think the canopies look really cool from the satellite image :lol:

I'm not a fan of them in person though. But, to be honest, I can think of many other things that need to be fixed before this.

These signs should have been removed along with the large marquees that were removed. This whole area needs to be cleaned up. How nice it would be to see this area turned into a classic EPCOT water feature.

They do....But looking up, it's a jumbled mess...:(

Does anyone know if the two side ponds in the plaza were filled in back in the 90's? Or were they just covered over and could possibly re-emerge at some point?

I think they were drained and filled with pavement back in 1993/1994, but I would guess Martin (:lookaroun) would know more....

I agree. For better "traffic flow"

Yes, because a plaza that has numerous support poles, whirly gigs, concrete planters, palm trees, and a pin station in the middle of it is SOOOO much easier to walk through than a wide, clear path that has no obstructions in it at all.

Good call, Disney; it obviously makes perfect sense. :rolleyes:

The late 90's was the era of adding bobbles and junk to all the structures in Epcot. 10 years later we are seeing it all returned to the streamlined and modern look (minus all the bobble, whirly gigs, awnings, tarps, wands, etc).

Yeah...It was kinda like the Teal and Hot Pink color fad of the late 80's early 90's.
Ah, but it is futuristic! Whirlygigs and scientific gadgetry - Fun! :D

They just took two areas that you couldn't get through, and distributed them.:lookaroun

Ironic, huh?:D

Hopefully the attractions of EPCOT take note...;)

All the stripes on the floor in both Innoventions buildings are green based on the "Road to Tomorrow" theming.
