Politics, politics, politics. The worst of human nature comes out all too often, and in this case, the city of Anaheim and the Walt Disney Company both missed out on a golden cash cow due to bickering and unwillingness to compromise: WESTCOT.
What could have been built in place of California Adventure was elaborate, less based on Disney film properties, and a much more fitting sibling to Walt's Magic Kingdom. Disneyland deserved more than what it got. Here are just two pieces in my immense treasure trove of Imagineering concept art for the new EPCOT Center but improved park and the proposed expansion.
Until the day comes that I'm ready to share more and write about what could have been, here's a look at one of many articles here to give you some insight on what we missed. There's sixteen pieces of art there to go along with the post. If you're new to the world of Disney's unbuilt projects, this one will give you pause to think about the direction things should have been going. Enjoy!
