The remaining letters from the marquee in front of
Mannequins were removed overnight. So now we just have a
Dance Palace!
SPI Blog roving reporter William also says that black material has been placed on bottom windows of the
8TRAX stair tower facing the
Waterfront. You used to be able to peer into the dark club and see the junk piled up in the faint interior lighting. But now it's blocked!
Bob, It's such a sad thing, but, do you think that since it's now removed, we might hear something sooner than later? The place looks so bad, so deserted, so baron...don't you think that they might announce something a little sooner than we are expecting, or do you think that they might be just cleaning up anything that might deter a 3rd party from taking one of the spots? So, So Sad.. But, hopefully better news is on the horizon! Thanks for all the updates, you are the best!
ReplyDeleteAnd, PS...is that Disney Management at the bottom of the picture getting ready to escort you off the Island for taking pictures? LOL!
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's a Disney Mngt. calling Disney Security (She looks like she is on the phone) Run Bob, Run!
ReplyDeletejust SAD ;(
ReplyDeleteBUMMER!
DamnMouse72 8/20 7:15 - I was thinking the same thing. My theory is that the recently filed permits are to even things up for potential generic 3rd parties. I'd be the first one to stand in line to get back into a club there but I fear that my hopes will be tarnished with another brand name versus a dance venue. They may as well slap a "Sears" sign up there now. Sad indeed. And most certainly thanks to KingBob for the udates!
ReplyDeleteIf they're going to start fixing up the clubs they had better start now.
ReplyDeleteLets put nightlife back in Pleasure Island whether it's 3rd party or not.
Well at least the neon lights still exsist around the entrance roof. I agree, it would have been easier to remove the whole sign instead of just the letters. Maybe it have a new beginning with a 3rd party club operator.
ReplyDeleteOne source said we'd hear something VERY soon and another said it would be awhile before any announcements were made.
ReplyDeleteNo, that's not Disney management calling Security. I am not banned from the Island by the way. I deleted and did not post the picture that was objected to so I'm still in their good graces. I think.
We continue to monitor the situation on the Island.
LOL...thanks Bob! Looking forward to some good news (sooner than later hopefully...)
ReplyDeleteBob, was on the island today. A few observations...
ReplyDelete1. The Mannequins sign above the side door is still there. Not sure why you would take the big one down and leave the other smaller one.
2. All of the signs under the big West Side sign facing the parking lot are now gone. Just the frame is there now.
3. Went into Apricot Lane with a friend just to see it - not a single other person in there and noticed that they didn't even bother to paint the walls from when Harley was there. Looked a bit tacky with the spots you would normally have on the walls from where other things used to hang. Almost looks to me like this COULD be a temporary location since not much was really done to it before they moved in.
Is zulemara still out there??...better get down to property control and grab those letters!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMike, thanks for the update!
