With the proliferation of concrete stamping and coloring, I would hope that they used a little imagination before simply pouring plain gray concrete slabs.

I'm pretty sure that they found that that piece of land is unbuildable. (economically)

hmm... I understand MOST of the bricks have been there for around 10 years or so.. but I got a brick online like 3 years ago... so does that mean mine would be moved to a tiny area off to the side?

Maybe the bricks were placed in general areas according to order date -- oldest in front of MK, then the TTC, etc... That way, the areas with bricks older than 10 years could be entirely replaced, while areas with newer bricks might remain a little while longer.

Perhaps they will grind the bricks up into the mortar, thereby creating a loophole. You're brick IS still there, just not recognizable anymore.
I never read the sales contract, so I don't know if this would work or not. :shrug:

perhaps initially, but mine is actually in the "secure" area not far from the guest relations line... and around it are a mix of older bricks and like mine some newer ones.:shrug:

thats, to bad, even tho I don't have a brick, I like looking at them when I go to MK, especially for the first time during a visit. If I did have a brick, I would probably try prying it out, bringing it home and putting it in my walkway. that would be awesome!
Marni, Was that the main point of the bricks being discontinued? I never really knew why they stopped, figured people weren't buying them..

I am sorry that some of you just dont appreciate what disney has done, remembering someone at their most magical place. Most of you on thiis site are APS, but its the tourists who keep the money flowing and parks going. FACT! I dont have a brick, but my parents have what you call a tombstone, but to me it is a place to see my loved ones wo have passed. We and my family get excited to see it. A living legacy is just that! If you want it out, fine, just send me my piece that has been purchased, dont turn it into mulch to make you happy. You want a park for APS, go to universal! this is what makes disney.

Our brick was also removed by a automated ticket machine. That still bugged me a little, but over time we moved on.
We also have a LaL tile. I could care less what they do to those roadblocks leading into Epcot. In the end, their going to do what they want to and we have to accept it. We will b*tch and complain, but to no avail. JMO:wave:

Ok, remove them, but at least have the consideration to pass on the tile, at no extra cost. then put something in memorable for those who paid> No names, just a really cool entrance!

Thank you for your non-jaded, from the heart response. I agree with you.

The generally-presumed reason was a combination of not wanting to deal with the bridge-over-the-canal issue, and that sales of the Leave A Legacy tiles were slow and they wanted to boost those sales as much as possible, so they eliminated its only "competition". (For all intents and purposes, brick sales ended in 2000... Quite the coincidence, wouldn't you say?)

There are no plans now to complete the path.
A resort on the plot won`t happen - try a search for Mediteranian or Venitian resorts. The ground was found to be unsuitable.

That's a total bummer if true. We own two bricks commerating the first time my girlfriend (who since became my wife), my parents, and I went to Disney together. I wish Disney would at least allow those of us who purchased the bricks originally to buy them pack and have the actuall bricks shipped to us. I wonder if Mousesurplus will somehow get in on this and sell the bricks back to people?
