New Entry Plaza

Disney 2007. Used with permission.
Disney announced in October 2007 that it has ambitious plans to transform the underperforming Disney's California Adventure. The overarching theme that will give DCA the magic spark it's been missing will be none other than Walt Disney. The new tone will be established at the front gate. Instead of the mishmash of Golden State markers, the entry plaza will be recast as circa-1920s California, the vintage Los Angeles and Hollywood that Walt Disney encountered when he first headed west to chase his dreams. Like Disneyland's Main Street U.S.A., the idealized boulevard will lead to a stylized landmark, a building designed to evoke the Cathay Circle Theatre. DCA's new theater will present a revamped Walt Disney Story. To help establish a sense of place, streetcars, reminiscent of LA's old Pacific Electric Railway, will ply the thoroughfare.
