![]() | March 21, 2008: Real Buildings that Inspired Disney-MGM Studios, Part 2 It's now Disney's Hollywood Studios, but it was Disney-MGM Studios when it opened in 1989. Last year, I published Real Buildings that Inspired Disney-MGM Studios, Part 1, comparing five Disney versions to actual Los Angeles area "originals." Here's Part 2, with six more buildings. Link to Real Buildings that Inspired Disney-MGM Studios, Part 2 at YesterlandPlease discuss it here.

![]() | Re: March 21, 2008: Real Buildings that Inspired Disney-MGM Studios, Part 2 This series is absolutely amazing. I have a new appreciation for these Disney buildings and look forward to seeing them in person again. Seeing the Max Factor building's fate as a Mel's Drive-in was a little disturbing.

![]() | Re: March 21, 2008: Real Buildings that Inspired Disney-MGM Studios, Part 2 Fabulous and Amazing, the attention to detail here is just incredible. I always felt like I was in Hollywood, CA when walking down the streets at DHS, but never quite knew why. It's neat, although a little sad to see the original inspiration for these buildings, and it just helps to make it feel even more "Hollywood-esqe". |
