Don't know if it is the full music loop, but they put up a whole album of songs from the land on Spotify.

hahaha yes, THAT part I understand. I meant what the fake grass replaced.

well, yes, lol, but also I feel like it's still strange to have a lawn, let alone a fake one."Mah childhood!!"

Looks like they are replacing the pavement that was damaged in last winter's rains, but leaving Walt's Dreaming Tree and the creepy
That seems like a mistake. They should rip out those roots and just forget about it and pretend it never happened.

Those roots are so bothersome. Terrible execution.
The grandchildren I don’t yet have are going to have children before this project is ever finished
You need to be more careful when you and your friends run around the tree.

The roots don't even make any sense. A tree with that trunk diameter would never have roots bigger than the trunk in the first place. Why couldn't they have just put in fake tree like they did to Winnie the Pooh at MK? Oh yeah, Disney is hurting for money.
On Main Street we get fake grass and in Toontown we get a dinky real tree with fake roots for something that was advertised to be a prominent piece of the land. The fake grass saves money. The fake tree doesn’t.

Its a tree in a made up land where cartoon characters live inside and walk around inside an amusement park.The roots don't even make any sense. A tree with that trunk diameter would never have roots bigger than the trunk in the first place. Why couldn't they have just put in fake tree like they did to Winnie the Pooh at MK? Oh yeah, Disney is hurting for money.
Who said the root systems of a tree inside such a land had to make sense and follow the rules of the real world.....

Because both in the real world and artistically speaking it is stupid looking.

Initially the real tree saves money. However, the fake tree doesn't take water and doesn't make roots that tear up the area. Look at all the money they are spending to fix their mistakes in that area now. It should have been a fake tree to start with. Right now the area just looks stupid. Why couldn't they just have moved Chip n' Dale's tree house there and closed up the door?

Trees don’t really need a lot of water. Especially mature trees. The fake tree would cost Disney what these days? 5 million? It’ll take a lot of saved money on water bills to get to that amount.
But yea it looks really dumb. By the far the worst part of the TT redo. Everything else is fine or better. To play devils advocate maybe they went real because it needed to be just like Walt’s dreaming tree? Who knows maybe in 25 years it’ll be the spitting image.
