Has anyone seen anything recently about the plans for PI? I had heard that WDW wants to create a better flow through to both sides of DTD and is revamping the PI component to be a non fee based area with national brand clubs and restaurants.
Changes are already happening.
West Side Bridge has been moved to where the West End Stage used to be.
Ticket trolleys are only on the Marketplace side, West Side must visit Guest Relations. You can purchase tickets on the island in ATM type machines next to 8Trax.
The elimination of the stage at the West End has really done wonders (in my opinion) to the area in front of the Warehouse. They have lots of tables and chairs for chatting, a VERY small stage for live music throughout the late afternoon and late evening, and it's very well-it.
The shops (recently Harley Davidson, the Missing Link, etc) between The Adventurer's Club and Rock and Roll have been shut down and supposedly will be turned into some sort of Landry restaurant with a TRex theme.
Next to the Rock and Roll Beach Club, they've opened up a dock for the ferry to/from Marketplace and West Side.
A cigar lounge is going in below the DJ booth by Raglan Road.
Club age (save the Warehouse and AC) has jumped to 21.
Personally, I could care less about the changes as I rarely go anywhere but the Warehouse. However, for the big drinkers and partiers...this seems to spell disaster making the Island more family-friendly which doesn't make for a good party atmosphere... It looks like absolute crap with the state it's in right now. I'd be pissed to spend 22 bucks to feel like I'm walking around a construction site.
I thought that T-Rex thing was going into the parking lot near McDonalds![]()
Yea, getting rid of that stage was a good idea. All it did was attract large, drunken, raucous crowds. Nothing family friendly about that..........![]()
Thank goodness for AC and CW. Otherwise there would be absolutely no reason to go near PI.
