Interestingly enough, I came across some info on this as well.

Seems to me if one were to sell DVC timeshares, one would want the home Kiosk looking in tip-top shape and perhaps a bit contemporary?

The current kiosk is near the entry to Chef Mickey's.

I agree this looks like a new thing.

the DVC sales is no where near 10,000 sq ft.

wonder if they are finally going to attach the walk way? wish I could read plans....

I'm betting they are just moving it because of the steakhouse being blown up. It's not much more than a table right now.

10,000 square feet sounds like they could put a model or two in there...

That's a massive space for a "kiosk".

Unless I'm misunderstanding the plans.

 

[MrDVC]

Maybe it ties in the bridge over to the 4th floor level and lets you out at where the steakhouse was, along with perhaps a few models? Who knows....

It is quite interesting though ... 10,000 sq feet ... That's a lot of space. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what it turns out to be.

Well, I'm just thinking - if the BLT is not complete and they have a daytripper or an offsite guests in MK - it would be much more convenient to have a model within walking/monrail distance of the MK and not have to schlep guests over to SSR. Even onsite guests might be more willing to take a tour from the MK, and Monorail resorts if they didn't have to go all the way to SSR and give up so much of their vacation time.

10,000sq ft - would definitely fit a reception area, kids' area, some small private offices, and a 2bd mock-up (which are all the necessaries).

We'll see.

Any by chance know how big the sales center is at Saratoga?

From the Press Release for the Doorway to Dreams DVC Preview Center in Chicago:

"Once inside the preview center, guests will experience an interactive family vacation discovery zone, comfortable discussion areas and a supervised children's play area within its approximately 6,300 square feet of retail space. Also incorporated within the preview center is a full-scale model of a two-bedroom vacation home. The design of the model vacation home represents accommodations available at Disney Vacation Club's eighth resort, Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas at the Walt Disney World Resort, which opened its first phases earlier this summer."

what they did with the others - was let you see the actual villa - since they are short walk away - can't believe they would be models in the CR.

hoping it will be near the entrance to BLT and it contains the walk way.

if this is key open only - then maybe this has something to do it with - plus of course giving new space to the DVC..

right now their is a tiny table and 2 chairs. but it was a good location - right off the elevators.
