News Round Up 2017

Wow...


This stuck out to me.

"And that’s not all. This new hotel creates great benefits for the community, generating approximately $25 million in new taxes in its first five years of operation that go directly to Anaheim’s general fund. It also will create thousands of additional construction and permanent jobs and attract new hotel guests to the resort area."

Do we think this is to get the city to approve Eastern gateway?

Check that saw the OC article now.

I was too lazy to look it up and I took a shot...

I think I saw that on a Snapple cap once

Ah, the curtain has been pulled back on the great and powerful LOL, all of his pontificating is based off of Snapple lids!

Probably not since Disneyland also canceled that.

My first two thoughts were:
1. Leverage to get the council to budge
2. Rubbing the council's nose in it by embarrassing them on a new development in favor of redevelopment of land they already control.

Yeah missed the second article.

They could change their mind tomorrow if they wanted.

That paragraph was definitely targeted at the council that is for sure.

No doubt...it's not even that subtle

Guilty as charged.

They still teach Keynes at Princeton...as opposed to Chicago...

I'll go with the tigers

A Chicago grad here. Although they aren't huge proponents of Keynes they are no where near supply sider thinking.

Especially when there were rumors within the last year that they would be revitalizing DTD. I am surprised the AMC would go I feel that would still be successful. I agree about the other things though.

I hope they rebuild a movie theatre with the expansion since Disney uses the theatre quite a bit for parks blog events, movie premieres etc.

I agree with you there. I really wish the Eastern Gateway was happening, because I feel like you would be able to get to the parks a lot quicker from there. Disney still owns that land though correct?

Not sure. Everything with this new plan is for sure Disney owned. New structure will go literally right nest to Mickey and Friends, Hotel will take up part of DTD and a new hotel structure will go right next to Paradise Pier.

It looks like Disney is talking to the businesses that will be affected by this project.

I *want* it to be small and spendy actually...goes to duck...because otherwise, I figure the waiting list will be a zillion years. Most folks seem to think it'll be a cruise like xp.

Yeah, the cruise experience is the closest thing I can think of - pay one price, includes all your meals and drinks (maybe extra for alcohol) and entertainment, etc and everyone "gets on and off" on the same days

And like a cruise it will likely be some combination or per room and per person cost (so like 3rd and 4th person in a room might be cheaper, etc)

Easy there Captain Obvious

Y'all know that hotel could be in my wheelhouse! I wonder about roomservice...
