It would be cool if they could level it all and start again. There is just so much room and potential there.
Overview taken on 8/20/99. Amazing that they can take this and turn it into a theme park. Not a good park mind you but a park non the less.
Look how small Grizzly peak was. 10/03/99

Enjoy!
In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is more meaningful than our criticism designating it so.
Hey Dirton~
Thanks for the awesome pics! I had forgotten what DCA looked like as it was being constructed.

those are amazing pictures, where did you get them? Are there anymore like that??
Cool pics! Those were the days...
Yeah when there was hope that we were getting a kick new park, but then reality set in and we got screwed!Originally Posted by Gemini Cricket

Here's one before they really started working

Sigh...such wasted space.
DCA's never gonna get lovin' , is it?? poor thing. It's the ugly ducking of the Disney park family.
So much hope, so much potential.
Awesome picts though - I loves me the construction picts!

I'm addicted to Disneyland. Disneyland hobbies are expensive.
If I become a bum people are going to say "Don't give him money, he's just gonna use it on Disneyland."
Disneyland. My Anti-drug.
With all this talk of "off the shelf" and "on the back-burner" it seems the only thing that DCA is really missing is the kitchen sink!

Well, those were really interesting!
I dont really think its "wasted" space, but it is getting better, and growing all the time as Al is showing in his article. We need to realize that DCA is growing and they are trying to better the park.
So lets love DCA...

Cool pics. I still have fond memories of the parking lot.
Yes, but she and her younger sister Walt Disney Studios take pride in disgracing the Disney name. Such trouble makers...
As for the pictures, they are great. They could have really taken advantage of that land.
Great PIcs!! Wow i cant believe they started in '99!! thats a looooong time ag o! lol
Putting the um in forum. Um...
I love dca....I hated the ugly parking lot...
Wow, it has been awhile. Didn't Disneyland invent the E-Ticket and add 3 major rides (subs, monorail, and matterhorn) just 4 years after it opened? DCA is dragging it's feet!
