The new
Downtown Disney Guidemap is out for January, 2011 and guess what ain't there no more?
Motion and
Rock'n'Roll Beach Club have now been removed, replaced with a tree-filled green space entitled "For Future Enjoyment". If anyone doubted that these two places were coming down and were not convinced by the demolition photos, then this should do it.
Guidemaps are good predictors of what's happening; you'll recall I posted the removal of
Celebrate Tonight from the
Guidemap early last year and sure enough, the show got axed shortly thereafter!
The
Guidemap is not entirely accurate. It still shows the #1 Bridge from
Marketplace in it's old triple configuation; it was rebuilt completely last Fall in a new design. The
Fuego by Sosa Cigars building looks more like the old
PI Live tower than how the building actually appears.
Mannequins still shows the eastern stair tower, something removed more than a year ago. And I remain intrigued that the
Soundstage club building still sports its old logo on the map while none of the other closed clubs do. We'll be watching!
Great pic Bob. If you look at the top right corner of the comedy club, it looks like their is still a logo there too!
ReplyDeletePossibly reading too much into it but Jungle Juice is also missing from the picture (and no mention of Laffers or PI Live bar).
ReplyDeleteMike, your observation is true but since the writing faces sideways, that logo is not really visible. Only the Soundstage Club logo is visible.
ReplyDelete71, even when PI was open, those bars/kiosks were not specifically listed on the Guidemap either.
subject to change......... Stay tune.
ReplyDeleteThe ticket booths still remain in the mix as well! I wonder what they'd be selling tickets to????
ReplyDeleteAlso, dare I mention that the dance floor in Mannequins rumor had died down. Any word on that?
ReplyDeleteJeff, It will cost $20.00 to walk through Hyperion Wharf, silly...and $30 to stare at closed clubs. LOL.
ReplyDeleteHa ha! But do I still get a wrist band?
ReplyDeletewell Disney is not perfect! LOL
ReplyDeleteand or the printing company? (hey put stairs on the side of Mannequins) and other things! as we now know we will see what will BE.........? as in the past (if you know Disney) things will not be until it's done Disney changes there minds (and I use that loosely) we shall see?
I think it's pretty ridiculous to charge $20.00 to walk through Hyperion Wharf, hopefully they'll change their mind on that.
ReplyDeleteAlso Maybe they'll reopen those clubs, hope so.
P.S.
As we hope Let Hyperion Wharf Rock!!!
it's going to cost to get in? well Disney opened PI so people could walk through so people wouldn't have to walk a round PI! now that's just..... DUMB! Disney just seams to not know what they are doing any more? with all that has gone on with the monorail and other deaths on property Disney CO. is falling a part! and too Me this started to go on after PI closed!?
ReplyDeleteThe poster who said HW was going to cost $20 was kidding folks. It will be an open island just like it is now. Roving Blog reporter Thommy reports that the Motion & RRBC demolitions are supposed to be completed by March and the new water fountain ampitheater open by this summer.
ReplyDeleteyes, but just a rumor on those 2 things. Don't want anyone thinking I'm claiming them as fact. they are just what i've heard
ReplyDeleteThanks KingBob. I was only kidding about the cost of getting into Hyperion Wharf. But, I am charging only Jeff $5.00 for his wristband that he wants so much. He will be the only person in Hyperion Wharf with a $5.00 wristband. Wear it proudly Jeff. LOL....
ReplyDeleteI'd gladly pay $5 for my wristband too......if it gained me entry to a reopened Mannequins or 8TRAX!
ReplyDeleteMe too Bob.
