When do you think there will be a new park at WDW?

It's kind of interesting to think that this will be the first decade since the 70's with no new Disney park in America.
70's- MK
80's- Epcot, HS
90's- AK
00's- California Adventure

Just out of curiosity; what would it cost to build a 5th gate? Say they broke ground tomorrow. Considering they just spent 1+ billion on "nex-gen" what would a full fledged park cost in today's dollars? 50 billion? 100? more?

And to answer the original question...I don't see a 5th PARK ever opening. I see technology and our way of life changing so dramatically in the next 20ish years that Disney will be forced to think outside the typical theme park box, they same way AK was revolutionary when it opened. Maybe some sort of virtual reality experience. Something along the lines of Disney Quest but done right and done on an enormous scale.

There isn't a need to add another park when there is so much available improvement/expansion to be had in the existing four. The next venture to me would be (and this may be unpopular) a world class casino/resort. One day gambling will be legalized in Florida and Disney will capitalize on it in a major way. I'm not saying I'm for the legalization of gambling here. I'm just looking at the potential of what Disney could do with it once its allowed. Disney has enough land to create their own mini strip

According to Kevin Yee, Disney is Spending 3 Billion+ Dollars on "nex-gen".

Before someone says something, that is enough money to expand the monorail system even though that is not what I would want the 3 billion plus dollars spent on right now for WDW.

3 Billion dollars also is more than enough for a 5th park, but 3 billion Dollars should be spent on DHS and AK instead.

3 Billion Dollars is enough money to completely fix DHS and add stuff to AK including Pandas. There could even be money left over after DHS and AK for doing stuff to Epcot.

And if I had 3 billion Disney dollars that's exactly what I'd do with it

Building a new park would only worsen park maintenance. Walt Disney World presently has a lot of maintenance and upkeep. 4 parks,2 water parks,23+ resorts,golf courses, ect. They can barley handle this now, with a new park maintenance and upkeep would be up to par with Funland Carnival. Back in the 70s' and 80s' when there were only two parks and a few resorts, you had more focus on "one thing" then Eisner went on his hotel and park building spree.

3 billion could build an entire new park? Really? Didn't the FLE cost almost that much alone?

3 Billion Dollars is enough money to buy a Big Mac for 854,700,855 starving people.
