Breaking News: No. 4 Bridge Closed

Save Pleasure Island Blog roving reporter William yesterday evening reported that the No. 4 Bridge to Pleasure Island (from Downtown Disney West Side) has been permanently closed.  Pedestrian traffic must now take the bypass causeway around Pleasure Island.  Supposedly with pedestrians removed from the entire west side of the Island, demolition work can continue including the removal of the entire upper deck of PI; i.e. West End Plaza/Celebration Plaza. The No. 4 Bridge itself will also be coming down, perhaps first, since it leads from ground level on the West Side to that PI upper deck.  There is a demolition wall up on the West Side at the bridge entrance. Near 8TRAX there is a wall blocking pedestrians from that direction.  In addition, personnel at Paradiso 37 have an additional rope block near the bypass entrance and only those going into Paradiso to eat/drink can pass the rope.

It's pathetically sad, that five years ago P.I. really rocked.
Maybe Disney can surprise everybody and bring nightlife back to Pleasure Island.
Looks like City Walk has all the nightclubs opened and getting all the money.

There's sure to be something but whether we will like it is another story.
