King of the World: the Fifth Gate

For a long time, there has been talk of a fifth park at Walt Disney World. 

Unfortunately, most of the whispers you hear tend to be pretty narrow, focussing on one target audience. This, however, is pretty problematic as it specifically going against Walt's dream of a place where families can have fun together.

But, I have an idea. It's a park where a kid can be a kid, an adult can be a kid, big kids can get their thrills, and families can really have fun together. It features a theme which is immensely Disney, able to explore both classic characters and new ones.

It would be Toon Town. Yes, I know, that isn't an original idea. In fact, there already is a Toon Town in Disneyland, however, this would be much grander. Not just a Toon "Town" but a Toon CITY; Duckburg, to be precise, complete with suburbs, docks, schools, municipal buildings, and train stations.

I picture a fully functional city. You'll have a mayor, police officers, fire fighters, everything! Shops, restaurants, factories, you name it, it will be there.

So, where's the fun, you ask? Everywhere! These are toons, everything they do is fun!

There would be six "Neighborhoods": Downtown Duckburg, Duckburg University, Mouseville, The Waterfront, Spoonerville, and the Other Side of the Tracks. Like any cartoon, these will be vivid, colorful areas each their own with separate themes and stories. Guests will be entertained with various attractions aimed at exploring the fun world of Disney cartoons.

In future posts, I will explore each Neighborhood individually and show what stories I would tell through them.
