Main Street, U.S.A. Refurbishment Progressing, Original Carnation Cafe Sign Restored at Disneyland

One scrim falls only for scaffolding to rise as the very visible refurbishment of Main Street, U.S.A., continues at Disneyland.

After two months of being hidden behind a scrim, Carnation Cafe’s freshly-refurbished façade is finally fronting on Main Street, U.S.A. once more. There are still some construction walls around the first floor, including in the patio, but the brickwork and signage is visible again.

The paint and brickwork over the entrance have all been cleaned and revived, and the classic lightbulb marquee is bright and shiny.

The “Carnation Company” sign was restored. This is the building’s original ceramic sign, leftover from when the restaurant was still an ice cream parlor sponsored by Nestlé.

The windows above the outdoor patio and Main Street, U.S.A., have also had their painted “advertisements” refreshed.

However, the work on Main Street, U.S.A., is not yet complete. Penny Arcade, Candy Palace, and Coca-Cola Refreshment Corner are all wrapped in printed scrim.

Construction walls also cover the windows, but the businesses are all open for guests despite their external appearance.

Once you get past the end of Main Street, U.S.A., the scrim is replaced by a tangle of scaffolding on the other side of Refreshment Corner. The construction walls also continue around the corner.
