Disney Springs has been in the news a lot lately. Chefs from around the country are taking up residence, Town Center is bustling with a variety of shopping options, and nightly entertainment is becoming the norm. There’s a lot to be done at the new complex; so much, in fact, that Disney Springs is more of a destination now rather than a quick “hit or miss” during one’s vacation to the Walt Disney World Resort. Some are even claiming it to be Disney’s answer to a “fifth gate.” I decided to take a closer look at what exactly guests can find and do in a series of articles over the next several weeks. This is only the beginning.

Very nicely done, Nikki.

I will forever miss "Downtown Disney" and Pleasure Island, but I would be definitely excited to check out Disney Springs if I ever get down that way again.
