Don’t forget Cinderella coming down the staircase with Prince Charming.
Oops, I did forget about that. I was probably thinking ahead to my park days, specifically MK, when I can run into Mickey and Minnie in Fantasyland with no one else around and dance with them and hug them.

What agreement?

Their development agreement with CFTOD. This is a development agreement that can be changed but at this current time they’re only permitted to have ~57k rooms.

More or total? I presume the latter. How many rooms do they currently have? I thought it was somewhere around 40,000 right now.

I believe I misspoke. I would have to double check the agreement. I’ve edited my post for now.

Per the agreement, they are allowed a maximum of 53,467 rooms at the moment.
It seems (upon a quick Google search), they currently have 36,114 on property, this includes the Disney Springs hotels & Swolphin which are not operated by WDW. I would assume that they are included in the total number of keys though due to the fact that it is a development agreement for all of Walt Disney World property.
This allows for 17,000 more rooms over the next 10 years. That is a LOT of hotels. We are never going to see that number hit in the next 10 years.

What do you mean by zap.. sure I kinda see what you went there so basically any bottom floors would be blocked by views of only the convention building.^

You're idea is basically Disney's Grande Venezia resort but reborn near Epcot instead of Seven Seas Lagoon. What's kind of funny is Disney's Riviera Resort is practically a neighbor an Italian neighbor half itself.

Yes but the finished version of Disney's Riviera Resort doesn't feel much like anything other than a Marriott hotel...it is certainly not themed aside from some occasional photos. A Grand Venetian Resort could be truly beautiful...but I have concerns over whether current leadership could pull something like that off anymore. The Italy pavilion was supposed to have gondoliers and an actual show...instead we got a restaurant and a gift shop...leaving the attraction to phase two....and when phase 2 happened it became a pizza place instead of a real attraction. ( I do really like Via Napoli) I wish Iger's mandate was about putting an attraction at every country pavilion rather than making every new added attraction be based on whatever company owned IP happens to be popular at the moment.... Having more thematically appropriate attractions giving World Showcase more capacity would make people a lot happier than the re-landscaped core of Future World ever will.

How many do they have now? Do DVC rooms count as hotel rooms for this purpose?

While it's fun to Blue Sky, this project isn't moving forward.
As our favorite bellhop points out, having this as a DVC hook many, many years down the road might help them with retention and cashflow.
And even through that lens, it is still very unlikely.

There would be no more convention hall
I am part of the problem, should have put this in this thread not the Moana one.

Exactly! They aren’t doing all of this road work for nothing. They are expecting more traffic back there in the future.I think this thread could use a reminder:
