New Contemporary artwork

Screamscape has posted some new artwork of the new tower here. It just makes me sad.

Re: New Contemporary artwork

Somehow, it doesn't fit. There are a few buildings like that in my city. It would have been nice to design something more futuristic.

Re: New Contemporary artwork

That looks all crazy and weird. It looks nothing like the original building and its gonna look all out of place.

"OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!"

That's what should happen to the WDC executives responsible for this MONSTROSITY.

It's really really DISGUSTING. Maybe even the most disgusting thing they have done yet at WDW.

It's also really really PATHETIC!

Re: New Contemporary artwork

first, that artwork is NOT "new". It's been out since last year and it MAY not be the final design.

Re: New Contemporary artwork

I wouldn't have minded so much if it was shorter then the main building. It just demeans the real Contemporary Hotel by being far taller.

Re: New Contemporary artwork

I don't care for the design at all - it doesn't fit and takes away from the beauty and elegance of the Contemporary. Sort of like sticking a giant, stupid looking wand made of ugly construction girders next to a unique and beautiful sphere shaped ride. Hey, wait a second...

Saved my post before seeing this info. I certainly hope that's not the final design!

Yeah and not only that, but it blocks views of Bay Lake as you round that corner on the monorail.

I've seen more than one version of artwork for this place and they all look the same. I think we can count on this being the final design.

Third, WDW is way over capacity when it comes to accomodations, I mean, they're taking Suites at the AK Lodge and turning them into DVC units. Why the F*** do they need to be building this piece of sh** in the MK resort area like this?

The WDC really disgusts me. Really. They're such IDIOT A-HOLES.

Sorry, I know this is a serious topic, but I have to laugh at this post! I mean, geez Nick, don't hold anything back, OK?
