News New Park Entrance coming to Epcot

[NelleBelle]

Are they still hawking, er, selling tiles? If they’d done this from the beginning, I would have been more apt to get a tile.

Edit: it loos SO much better...really nice.

Nope. 1999 to 2007

Will be interesting to see if sales resume. I would not be surprised.

I wouldn't put it past them. We also have a brick at the TTC. That always takes forever to find as I don't have the certificate.

They need the money right now, so I can easily see it.

We're not tall people, so I'm hoping our tile isn't/wasn't placed too high.

Anyway, @wdwmagic , do we know how tall that wall is? Thanks!

Not to be a debbie-downer, but I think it just looks like a construction wall. It's just too tall. Plus, folks are going to have a hard time identifying their pictures if their tile was placed in the top third of the wall, let alone read any text if they went that route.

And it seems they're planning to use that multi-color stripe motif for the foreseeable future since they've incorporated it into this permanent display, which is fine I guess.

It's still better than having the brown tombstones cluttering up the entrance plaza, but I'd be lying if I thought this was a great solution.

The thing is, these are doubling as security fencing. I do agree they are too tall but it's still better then the tomb stones or the usual green security fencing we usually see.

In the 10ft area

I foresee a lot of shorter people holding their cell phone over their heads trying to get a picture of their tile...

Really nice and simple site for searching for them, https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/epcot/leave-a-legacy-find-my-tile/

Thanks for the site. We always looked our tile up whenever we went to the park and was happy to see we can continue to see it on our upcoming trip.

I like this.

And I’d buy a tile. Bummed I didn’t get one previously.

Nice that they're using the new Pavilion Icon colors. First the ticket booths, now this - It's exciting to finally see the effort for some visual cohesion. The park has been lacking a design identity for years.

Ticket booths look like someone threw up on them after seeing the last Innoventions paint job.

I prefer the brighter neon-ish colors than the muted weird nonsense that was on innoventions. Those colors looked more like puke than the ticket booths unless we are talking about figment throwing up.

Sorry, that was me.

I an SO glad to be back, but 10 feet tall? How am I supposed to enjoy looking at me??

Hope you are not at the top!

are they going to start putting new faces up now or not. I’d really like to put my grandparents on there, they got me into Epcot and loved it themselves. That was the one day they hogged me from my parents.

What a difference! Wow. Honestly I was glad to see them go and cringed when they said they’d be “relocated” but wow. Spot on. If they do open it back up not ashamed to sign on up. Even if I’ll need a ladder......
