New Enhancements, Dining Options Coming to Disney’s BoardWalk

[TDLFan]

Behold, the new sign!

 

[James Alucobond]

Yay, regular kerning.

 

[LSLS]

Is it just me or is it still pretty badly off center?

Not just you. The B is noticeably closer to the sign’s edge than the I is on the right.

The spacing of the letters in “BoardWalk” leaves something to be desired. The B is nearly floating by itself while the W is rather squished.

And the text and overhead lights don’t line up.

The lighting could be the angle of that photo, but otherwise I totally agree. The centering is off and the letter spacing is apparently random. This looks like something from a 7th grade industrial tech class.

It’s giving me

 

[ToTBellHop]

It’s better for me to just ignore the sign.

 

[MisterPenguin]

Well... it's spelled correctly.

 

[Eric Graham]

Well... it's spelled correctly.

Wait what, so Winnie the Pooh is unaware of your existence with him?

 

[Eric Graham]

nvm off to the cupboards for me

I was joking to explain Disney’s absurd restaurant building schedules of late.

Construction crews and supplies are still at a premium, so much so that Aldi decided to buy 400 Winn-Dixie and Harvey's grocery stores to convert across the southeast because it was less expensive and quicker than building their own.

I heard that Trader Joe's isn't interested in self-check out lanes at their stores.

Well they are owned by Aldi Nord, Aldi Sud embraces them.

Was just here before they started on this and have no clue what it looked like before lol

Oh, I know he knows about me. He's blocked me so many times!!

 

[Eric Graham]

I really like Pooh's rain rain rain song, but that's another story

 

[Eric Graham]

Sorry one more. Years ago, I was wearing a Winnie The Pooh shirt and all of the cast members kept saying, "You Have Pooh All Over Your Shirt!" So hilarious!

I’m glad they’re finally doing it. A lot of the wood is rotten.

It has to be done in sections since the resort still needs to function.

Also noticed the lightbulbs in “The Boardwalk” sign on the Boardwalk side were finally replaced! Many were burned out for years.

We saw some that were rather broken. The photo is a bit blurry, but it surprised me to see this on the Boardwalk. Image was taken by the former ESPN, so looked to maybe be construction damage:

They appear to have centered "Boardwalk" betwen pillars 1 and 3 from the left, but then didn't center "Deli" between 3 and 4 OR justify align on the right side. I think it could look more normal if they just shift "Deli" farther right, but there are other spacing issue for sure.

On this progress report they get "Needs Improvement"
