Exactly....I live in Ocean City, MD and I’d be sorely disappointed if in building the Boardwalk Inn Disney carbon copied my home town. Essentially what hey did is take a seaside town, keep the charm and filter it the riff raff and crap that sucks about beach towns. If anyone feels like Disney’s Boardwalk would be improved by adding in gaudy t shirt shops and water ice stands we’re going to have to agree to disagree. I’ll take Ample Holls any day.
In the same vein I’m glad they left the daily human sacrifices out of the theming at Coronado Springs’ pool.
BoardWalk board walk already has clothing shops. But as a deluxe hotel, it's not cheap ripoffs. It's expensive ripoffs.
While Ample Hills is nice, they certainly could use a sno-cone, soft serve custard, cotton candy, funnel cake, orangeade, NY style pizza, calzones, hot dogs, etc... vendors. Not to mention a rockin' arcade.
Disney certainly could have picked the best of typical seaside board walk entertainment and made it more of a boardwalk in entertainment rather than in mostly decorative theming.
And if they don't, I'm not sure we should be taking their advice seriously.WHAT? IT'S NOT REAL??? VACATION IS RUINED.
Talk about a party pooper
Next thing you'll tell us is that World Showcase isn't a real trip around the world!
You mean, I'm not really stepping back in time to a turn of the century Main Street? THE HECK YOU SAY!
I'm sure Disney is just fine not truly recreating the Jersey boardwalk
Why do people need to rain on the parade? If someone enjoys the Boardwalk at Disney, so what? I think most are aware it's not "real". I mean ... lol

One thing to remember is it’s a hotel first and entertainment district second. It’s a boardwalk themed hotel, not a boardwalk with a hotel on it. They didn’t want to make it too wild or crazy of an attraction especially at night so the hotel guests aren’t distrupted.BoardWalk board walk already has clothing shops.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled rant about how the skyliner will roast people alive and strand the dozens of inches off the ground.
Will the Skyliner have air conditioning? Sorry, if this was mentioned on every other page of the thread.
Yes, each cabin will have a small nuclear reactor running a standard residential window unit
So, because it’s a “watered down version of the real thing”, Disney’s Boardwalk can’t be enjoyed for what it is?You guys don't travel much. Everything at Disney is a watered down version of the real thing, you do realize that? The Disney boardwalk is the most sanitized thing I have ever seen compared to the real ones such as NJ. I hate to give NJ credit but their boardwalks are the real thing. Much more fun as well. I actually enjoy Wildwood NJ.
Epcot was always touted as "as real as you can get without actually going there."I don't think anyone thinks they're going to real France at the France pavilion. But a real board walk is in the realm of possibility since there are many board walks just like there are many fairs, carnivals, and theme parks.
Imagine if Disney advertised visiting their State Fair and when you go, it's not a fair at all, but a mall with decorations themed to resemble a State Fair.
Sorry, you're not allowed to say "air conditioning" in this thread.Will the Skyliner have air conditioning? Sorry, if this was mentioned on every other page of the thread.
