Officially announced that Toy Story Land will open on June 30th, 2018.

I’m blacked out that day. Ok month more so. But like I say the days that I’m blacked out I really don’t want to even be there, knowing how insane crowds are supposed to be those days

I know its Disneyland but gives us an idea.

I love how WDWNT totally skirts releasing their info behind an "agreement."

Here's the original link form TechCrunch:

Permits have been filed for Project H which is the Star Wars Hotel

Is it me but the planned site seems far away from Galaxy’s Edge? I guess part of me expected Disneyland Hotel Paris or Mira Costa closeness not yacht and beach club closeness

Its not exactly attached too but its still very close. They likely have a reason for that.

I’m just saying to me it seems far away. I guess I thought they would’ve capitalized on how close it is for the full immersion. I think that was just the plot of land though so we’ll have to see exterior concept art to know how exactly it’s supposed to be integrated

I am not sure the exterior will be focused on as much as the interior will be since that itself is the experience.

Oh joy I’m picturing forbidden journey’s show building situation

Aren't they going to be taking out that entrance to the DHS parking lot? If so, could they build the hotel there?

That entrance will move not be taken away.

Oh, I thought they were adding an entrance to the parking lot over across from AoA and then removing this one. Guess I misunderstood the plans.

Yes that is the new entrance which will replace that one so in essence its moved not removed

Okay, so then my original comment still stands. When they MOVE this entrance, would they not then be able to build right where the road is currently? I mean, the road that currently leads to the main entrance is what separates SW:GE from where this hotel is presumably going, and that road will not be in use soon.

Yes they should be able to build there.
