PHOTOS: Walls Come Down and Walkways Open in Disney Springs, Revealing “The Landing”
Walls came down around the former Pleasure Island bridge area (near the Adventurer’s Club site) over the Thanksgiving weekend, revealing new facades, concept art, and more for The Landing, the replacement land for PI courtesy of the Disney Springs makeover project of Downtown Disney. Let’s see what’s new and exciting:
Walls came down on the former Pleasure Island bridge connecting to the West Side last week, just in time for the heavy crowdsIt has been closed for quite a while, well over a yearThis area underneath the Restrooms next door to the former BET Soundstage seems to have been cleaned upThe large open space is where the Comedy Warehouse used to beNew lampsContinuing the story of the abandoned railroad, there are train tracks in the pavmentTrain tracksTrain tracksOne of the new facades, not sure if this is a shop or restaurantLooking down the main street of The Landing towards Paradiso 37Another look at this large facadeSign is up, but nothing is on it…As much as there have been complaints that the Town Center looks fairly bland, the Landing has some really pretty elementsThe former home of the Adventurer’s Club will become a restaurantSome small store facades in The LandingSome small store facades in The LandingSome small store facades in The LandingThe former home of Mannequin’s is transforming in Morimoto’sAnother new facadeOriginally meant for just dining, The Landing now includes several store spacesSome new concept art for The LandingLooking towards Paradiso 37 and the West Side from the new park areaConcept art showing the Landing, including another look at the yet-to-be-named restaurant in an airplane hangar…The frame of the airplane hangar building is upAnother beautiful piece of concept art showing what will become of the Adventurer’s Club and BET SoundstageHere’s what it looks like nowThe Landing will open in the Spring, but I can’t imagine these facades will be changed by thenAnother new piece of concept art
The Landing neighborhood in Disney Springs will open Spring 2015, although the area will likely not be finished by that time.
Anyone have any idea on some of the new shops and restaurants coming besides those announced. I know there was a photo floating around with names of various shops and restaurants but has any truth come to those? Looks beautiful, I still don’t think it can compete with City Walk but it is much better than before.

We sadly have no details as of yet.
