News Paradise Pier Becoming Pixar Pier

[Disney Irish]

Even if they grow they will be trimmed alot because the coaster is right there and you can't have the leaves or branches getting in the way of the track. so i still would not count on much shade.

Yep, you're right a coaster could never be around trees cause they'd have to be trimmed alot....

A lot of rickety old wooden roller coasters.

A lot of the older woodies were built in forest areas for theming.

Well that settles it lets extend Grizzly Peak into Paradise Pier

I say screw it and plant a bunch of massive trees behind Californian Screamin to block out the view of the power lines and convention center. Immersion into the pier isn’t as important as immersion into the park.

Trees in the background would actually help it look more like the Santa Cruz Boardwalk:

So would a beach.

So would a beach.

A 50 foot high beach?

A 50 foot high beach?

Sure! Just make a huge backdrop of sand dunes.

Sure! Just make a huge backdrop of sand dunes.

Those late afternoon Santa Ana winds would be rough in DCA if that would happen....

 

[George Lucas on a Bench]

Fake sand!

Fake sand!

Hey, this is a Disney Park sir. Nothing is fake!

again you miss my point. the trees have to be kept up and cut so the branches dont fall on the track and cause a derail such as ninja at six flags mountain mountain when a tree branch fell and derailed the ride with riders on it. the trees you have in your picS and cut short so the branches do not go on the track. THAT WAS MY POINT

You got me, its not like Disneyland doesn't have a whole worldclass horticulturist department onsite that can't maintain some trees around a track.....

I never said they didn't. again you MISS MY POINT. once again it is because the trees are right next to the coaster they are going to be constantly maintained to a point where they wont provide enough shade to cover the area.

No I get your point, what you miss is how ridiculous of a point it is which is why several posters (not only myself) have made fun of it.

As far as the shade goes, there is a process in horticulture where you can train a tree to grow a certain way. So if they wanted to they could train a tree to grow away from the coaster and toward the seated area to provide enough covering for shade.

My point is very valid.

The only shade Pixar Pier needs is the smoke caused by the fire burning down the pier. Full pier immersion.

 

[ParkPeeker]

Fake trees, or for better theming

Heck, why stop at just the pier? Let the fire spread throughout all of DCA and burn it to the ground and make it a parking lot again.
