WESTCOT Center is perhaps the greatest of the abandoned Disney theme park projects. If it sounds like Epcot, it should! Comprising two main areas, it feels like Future World and World Showcase but with a difference. Imagineering added thrill rides, new countries to explore, and new scientific based pavilions. Want a journey through the history of the world on an extended boat cruise where you can jump on and off? You got it! There's more. A lot more! Go here for a deep dive with all the details and concept art you'd ever want. Then you can "thank" Michael Eisner and team for cancelling it and replacing it with California Adventure 1.0!

Even 30 years later, Westcot still sounds like a revolutionary idea for a new park, it’s the one I probably have the biggest regrets for not having been built compared to Disney America or Disney Sea in Long Beach.
And please bring back Tony Baxter
YES- bring back Mr. Baxter! Disneyland Paris is the most magical of all castle parks!
Couldn’t agree more! It’s my “home” park, my first time ever at a Disney park in 1993 as a kid, II can still remember the smell of the fresh paint and the overall beauty and magic of it, and the ongoing construction of space mountain while ridding the train around the park
So sad it hasn’t seen any significant addition since then...
