Please tell me the left is after and right is before...

To think someone got paid to do that.

It's my understanding that the window is not off centre when viewed from inside the Club.

Your point?

Nailed it

Capacity issues are coming

Didnt we call that when this entire thing was rumored? I seem to recall us saying that....

There will be a shift of people to epcot but then they will be back at mk.. Its going to just be a 4 hour setback for most guests with little girls.

Perhaps a few more hours then that, Jim....

I guess I'm exaggerating about the Sommerhus, but my other example still holds. Club 33 at Disneyland got refurbished a few years back... at the expense of New Orleans Square and its forced perspective.

Edit:Made a grammatical error, now I need to revoke my Grammar Party membership.

talk about botched, Ill never understand why or who approved that.

I'm still baffled at how that gigantic picture window ended up being installed so off-center. There's so many things that went wrong with that Club 33 overhaul. It's like they deliberately screwed it up to try get people to drop their memberships and get the waiting list flowing.

Sometimes a room is not designed to be centered in the building that houses it. If a window needs to be centered in the middle of that room for esthetics from inside then that window may not be centered on the outside of the building.

Somethings are more important than other things.

But I think with a little clever Imagineering, it could be centered in both.

Not without major building reconstruction.

All they really have to do is put some props on the left where the space is and it'd look wayyyyyy better.

They are more concerned with it looking proper from inside for the paying guests than what it looks like from outside for the peons.

It'd cost next to nothing to put some light theming up.

Like I said....they have picked their battle. They really could not care less.

They really could not care less.

And that's the problem

Or maybe you don't install a gigantic picture window at all and preserve that sense of secrecy Club 33 is meant to hold. Because all that giant window does is say "Hey average guest on the ground whose paying an arm and a leg just to be here, check out these 1-percenters having a good time eating good food in a place you'll never see in person"

I think you may severely underestimate the audience - Frozen isn't just going to be sought after by "little girls".

And that's the problem

Well they fixed the problem for the inside of the room...it's like the minimalist themeing of the backside of Expedition Everest. Everyone was all up in arms about it not being "Completed" for a while. The drama died after a while when people realized it really makes no difference to the actual attraction. Just as the window not being centered on the outside of a building makes no difference to the people eating on the inside of the building.

It cuts both ways.

I work for a new home Builder, and back in the day, windows were located to maximize the interior of the home, ie - maximize light flow, facilitate furniture placement (especially in bedrooms), provide balance to the interior rooms ....

Then the "Architectural Control" beast got stronger and stronger, and now the number one concern is a pleasing exterior, contributing to an overall pleasant streetscape; and interior aesthetics be darned.

I can't tell you how often I am asked, "But Jenny-fer, where do I put my couch (bed, tv, armoire, table), the window is in the way.

Meanwhile back on the other side of the country, in Epcot, specifically the frozen ride...

This was poor planning. There is no battle.
