I was bored at work and started just daydreaming and I thought about where the Magic Kingdom sits on WDW Property. Buena Vista Place is only about a 1/2 Mile behind MK. My question is, If Walt was all about keeping the tourist traps from popping up and he bought all this land, Why was MK positioned so close to the Disney World border? And why didn't anybody build hotels with such a close proximity to the first and most popular WDW theme park? Any insights?
