The changes coming to what is currently known as Pleasure Island will include the AC building be torn down along with significant changes to the way the island currently is designed along with how it looks and feels. Pleasure Island will not exist in less then 24 months

I loved the AC as much as the next but i can promise you, not happy about it, that the AC as we knew it is gone for good. No fan site thread or Facebook page is going to change the plans that are in motion.

You could lie down in front of the bulldozer a la Arthur Dent (and I'd be quite impressed if you were able to convince a TDO suit to lie there for you while you bought a Kungaloosh! from the drink kiosk)
You say that in jest, I'm sure.
I, on the other hand....think it sounds kinda like a good idea....
I'll show them mostly harmless.....

Good riddance. Move on and knock the whole island down. :sohappy:

Okay. So I know you want the AC back, and I think it should be back. But we all know its not happening. So would you rather have an empty island or an island with something going on?

It's not really an island, only a wide peninsular that they dug a ditch across.

Fill in the ditch and get away from the island completely since there is no backstory for it anymore.

Oh contraire mon petite fromage, "they" did not simply dig a ditch. As with everything on this once amazing Island, it's creation is quite colorful, at least more so that a simple backhoeing. . .

. . .Besides all his other varied interests, Merriweather Adam Pleasure was a major fireworks enthusiast. To celebrate the end of World War I, he sets off the “World’s Largest Firecracker”, which destroys the last remaining link to the Florida mainland. Pleasure's daughter, Merriam, first utters the name “Pleasure Island”, which is soon adopted by everyone, and The Federber Peninsula finally, officially becomes Pleasure Island. . .

But never give into the mouse without a fight!

KUNGALOOSH!

On that day, I will be the guy standing off to the side hurling insults at anyone I can identify as a manager or TDO suit.
Morons. I wish them painful sores and long days begging for food on the side of the road.:fork:

Lee, as sad as it is regarding the building coming down, I'm sure you have heard and/or seen first hand the plans.

There are no plans "in motion" unless you're referring to the new bushes they just planted behind Mannequins.

What do you consider "in motion"? Just because you don't see activity/Refurb walls today on the island doesn't mean nothing is happening. The first set of Disney Refurb walls should be up before December, if not sooner.

I understand why you call that flag, but I promise you this isn't the case. The new Waterfront is finally on the horizon

You have anything to back all of this up, per chance?

I'll be the one to show up and take you to Raglan Road for a quick three pints and some peanuts. No jest!

OK, so I’ve recently heard one of the best chances of getting our Club back reside in the new Chairman Walt Disney Parks & Resorts, Tom Staggs. The story I was told that gives me hope for this man goes like this:

During one of his first days in his new position, Tom walked into Imagineering and asked them to tell him about the new Fantasyland Expansion. They were most emphatically telling him about the Ariel Dark Ride, Beauty and the Beast Restaurant, all the Princess Meet and Greets and Pixie Hollow, when he cut them off and said, “No”! He went on to tell Imagineering that not in his parks would he allow the possibility of a five year old boy, waiting in a three hour line for an autograph of Cinderella, just because his sister wants one! He then asked what was broken ground on so far and was told that Ariel’s Dar Ride and the Beauty and the Beast Restaurant. He said to finish those, but everything else, scrap and start again!

I believe if a gutsy man like this is in charge of Parks and Resorts he can correct one of Jay Rasulo’s biggest mistakes (A.K.A. The closing of the Adventurers Club and all of Pleasure Island) if he is shown that the public still wants our nighttime escape returned. So please, those who wrote so many letters two years ago, (and anyone else who demands the greatest example of true Disney Imagineering to be brought back) once again take pen to paper (or any equivalent there of) and write to:

Thomas O. Staggs
Chairman
Walt Disney Parks & Resorts
C/O Team Disney Building
500 South Buena Vista St.
Burbank, CA 91521-4873

The Club may have been gutted, but from what I’ve heard, nothing has been sent to Mystic Point yet, and the artifacts still reside in a warehouse on Walt Disney World property! It still can and should be put back! Let Tom Staggs know that Adventure is out there, we just want it back to 5189 Hill Street!

Quite a few artifacts are in the new D-street store on the West Side.
