This just can't be WDS, it looks brillant! :D

And when i was last there it pretty much just the buildings.

That is brilliant! The pictures are a little dark, but I can still make out the great little details like the "Parallel Parking Only" sign :)

Which reminds me of another detail - I've spotted at least 2 parking meters so far. :)

I wonder what will be in the windows of all these storefronts? The ones at DCA are a bit too modern and naff (like the park.. hehe), but do feature some nice Disney references.

You know, despite all the details, one thing they're missing:

That would just be the icing on the cake for me :wink:

Even the street lanterns and neons were on last weekend, it looked great, only a couple of neon signs still need to be fixed. The Tower itself looks great at night too btw, even the back, seen from Val d'Europe :wink:

I really have to post this photo...  :lol:   It's the real Hollywood Blvd in, well..., Hollywood!  

Notice the curb!



 :wink:  :wink:  :wink:

The imagineers have been very accurate.  :P

Well well, sometimes detail in themeing can also save money! :lol:

It's still a shame for the landscape of the Studios that it remains fairly flat and one-dimensional, but yeah - we can boast better accuracy than DCA or MGM. :lol: :lol:

PS: Can we get Stormtroopers walking around in WDS someday?

PPS: And a 'Disney Walk of Fame' (like those Disney Legends awards they do each year) would be awesome! A bit like the handprints near CineMagique but for 100% proper Disney stars. Having Walt at the end next to Mickey, pointing to their Hollywood soundstage, would then be even more perfect.

That´s a cool idea! Would be wonderful at the theater district. I´m not so much in this "hands" on the ground. But real disney stars can get me!

The stars would be a great add to WDS! The hands are already on a wall at DV, aren 't they ;) So new ones at the ground would be overkill?

There are already hands in wds too, at the place des stars :wink: , I personally do not believe it would be overkill to have some more handprints, would be some more unique details :) .

DynastyGo reports on Disney Central Plaza that the set dressing inside the buildings has started!  Curtains and signs have been added behind the windows of the buildings.

And Grandmath shares on the same Board that benches have been installed on the Blvd today.
