Out of the announcements at D23, this was the one I was looking forward too.

I'm hearing it was canceled so that they could have gold lined plates at the Club 33 locations instead of silver lined plates (I mean, really, what were they thinking... us 1%-ers eating off silver lined plates?!? What do they think we are? Peasants?!? Pish.....)

huh, funny how different folks can be, I'm the opposite, but I know it will be a loss in some form or fashion.

Well, hopefully the money will be put into another park that needs capacity.

MK needs capacity.

The only thing I am wondering is don't they usually do complex engineering studies/surveys and gather data for the land and water table before they would even announce such a project or start construction?

Yes they do

 

[HauntedMansionFLA]

MK needs capacity.

Yep. I agree. We have been there often the past few months. The lack of a nighttime parade is crippling

Not even you?

I was surprised when I found out.

Expect something official soon.

Please be positive news for WDW.

I understand that MK needs capacity but could this money be used for another attraction or theatre built in another park to help deflect the over crowding in MK?

On the bright side, perhaps they decided to build something that can handle 2000 an hour, every hour.

Dang...........that is quite the blind side. I’m dying to know the reasoning. That’s some big news. Well, now the flower market side street will remain untouched now? Silver lining? Ehhh.

You always have my attention, but now you really have my attention.

Just saying, maybe saner heads prevailed. No hint. Given current large budgets that are large but not infinite, perhaps money could be better spent.

Were you aware of a competing proposal? Or is this just a general summation?
