I was just there last week- granted, I don’t stay at resorts in that area - BUT I feel that should have not used that tan color on the top floors- kept it more brown like the rest

I also don’t think it looks “tower-ee”, but again, we only saw it from the ferry heading back from MK. In comparison, GF is more intrusive at that sprawling bright white color in the sunlight.

Just my opinion. Our home resort is AKL, and if they built a tower there, I’d be the first comment against it !

Just give Disney a chance AKL will get a tower

Poly tower is only 4 stories higher than AKL. 6 v 10
4 stories of ugly and inappropriate building is jarring in an established themed resort. If it were the size of the other buildings or just 4 stories it would have blended better....also if they had actually used the existing resort as an inspiration for the style of the new building it might have helped....but what we get is a very commercial looking Gensler condo building with some graphics and fake wood here and there....which does nothing to disguise that it is a horrible fit for the resort... The plain pool and fiberglass cartoon character splash pad add to the disconnect from the style and feel of what has been Disney's most popular resort.

The white is much preferable to its previous pink.
