Best Disneyland History/Design sites

[Sean O]

Hi Folks-
I'm an avid reader of Progress City USA and Passports to Dreams Old And New, both of which do an unbelievable job delving into WDW history. But now that i'm making my first trip to Disneyland in almost 2 decades, are there Disneyland-specific sites that go deep into the history and designwork of the park?

Side note: if you haven't read Passports, it's incredible.

Agree with PP about Yesterland.

Just be sure you have a free couple of hours when you start to browse this site.

Yesterland is great, and a resource I have pored over in the past. But I'm also hoping there are some insane folks who have really delved into why the pieces that still exist at DL are the way they are.

But I will definitely give another few hours over to Yesterland in preparation.

There are a lot of for profit blogs that posts articles on them like these.

Not a website but you may be interested in the second edition of the Disneyland Encycopedia. It has entrees for every store, display, and attraction that was ever at DL. Very interesting reading.

Imagineering Disney is one of my favorites, they cover both WDW and DL.
