Remembering the Osborne Lights.

[Virgo10]

Remember how BIG the display use to be?! Wouldn't you think with all the land that WDW has, they'd find a way to restore it to its former greatness?

These photos were taken in 1999.

I agree. I cant believed they just shoved it all on new york street ? It is a nightmare to try and get through there now. Its just not the same.

What happened to the lights? Did Disney send them to New York?

The Osborne lights were originally in Little Rock, and that was a huge traffic snarl around the holidays. But then they moved them to WDW after the city of Little Rock made them remove most of them.

Every year after that in LR, the lights grew a little larger. I don't think I've seen them in the past couple of years. Of course, we've been away in the military and haven't spent a lot of time driving up on Cantrell Road around Christmas.

Okay I am the oddball here... I actually LIKE the change! Sure it lost it's former "home town feel" but the lights to me are more impressive than ever! Apparently they have more lights now than before! So I am excited to see them again this year after what I saw last
