| The history of Pleasure Island was so much about the theming. You'll recall that the building that housed Mannequins Dance Palace began life as a canvas fabrication works which deployed many mannequins for fittings. Subsequently, Merriweather Adam Pleasure's hair-brain scheme to build a huge locomotive required an equally large turntable to reverse the engine. |
 |
| In later years with the overgrown Island rediscovered and the building repurposed as a dance club, the turntable was deployed as a revolving dance floor and the mannequins became the theme! |
 |
| With clusters of the old mannequins deployed around the club. |
 |
| So now it seems that an actual nightclub could be returning to our Island, themed as a 30's era former airline terminal. |
 |
| An aviation theme offers so many possibilities! |
 |
| And we're already seeing Disney's Imagineers at work again! |
 |
| The possibilities are endless! |
 |
| If they could could come up with ideas using mannequins, they can certainly come up with ideas related to aviation! Because no one is more creative than Disney Imagineers! |

(Mannequins) "Second building erected on the island, this actually housed Merriweather Pleasure's famous canvas fabrication works. In the 1930s, it was converted to a soundstage for Invincible Pictures, then into a design studio and workshop for various Pleasure projects. Most notable of these was a huge locomotive powered by a combination of steam and magnetic power. A colossal turntable was installed to facilitate the work on this revolutionary product, called "Maxwell's Demon", that was intended to revolutionize world transportation.
It didn't.
For further unverifiable information on the life and times of Pleasure Island, refer to the theoretical histerical plaques located at the island's entrances."
