Design Detail: Between Cars Land and Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure

Let's be honest: Disney California Adventure 1.0 and even some parts of 2.0 was not / are not known for excellence when it comes to design detail. Yet, things may be on a turnaround as Imagineering regains respect and more freedom under new CEO Josh D'Amaro. Case in point may be the walkway between Cars Land and Avengers Campus. 

I believe this photo was be taken by "mickEblu" on the WDWMagic discussion boards. It shows some simple design elements that turn a water fountain and bottle filling station into an object that perfectly fits where it is placed. The weathered blues and the gasoline tank looking dispensers fit right in, especially next to the metal sign for Stanley's Oasis. Could this be the start of a new era of excellence after so many "almost but not quite right:" projects? Here's hoping!
