The new scenes have such tight clearances compared to the old route that it is kind of comical how the rest of the ship just doesn't exist while piloting, it is only the cockpit.

It's completely understandable why its not part of your hitbox, most pilots, especially kids cant tell if they're just countering their own movements. That the joystick control could be inverted from the direction they intend on going.

I think I found all of them, there seems to be a few other micro builds but they aren't parks related, one is the UP house set, steamboat willie and I think a Rapunzel's tower build

It is odd they seem to have chosen two attractions from WDW in a Disneyland based set

I know this looks like I'm crazy, but I did try and color code it.

Green is recognizable shapes or features
Pink is destroyed sections that still match
Red is both where stuff is gone/covered/patched, as well as where the destroyed sections don't line up anymore
Yellow is stuff that is still there yet not visible anymore

Key takeaways are that most of the retheme was adding onto the existing building and repainting, with around half of the windows being filled while the other half were just covered.

I of course kept out more clear details like how all of the balconies are still there, or the stairs between the right and middle shafts.

Repost because the outlines weren't clear enough

The shortened name still says it too. Expedition, as in "journey to", Everest. You are on the way to Everest, not on it.

I am guessing with the new additions to the west end of downtown Disney, they cancelled the idea of a continuous strip of theme park space on that plot, likely going for two separate areas, one for each park, maybe with transport between. That brings the question of how much of the parking lots can they use without effecting the hotels there. The DCA side is just one big lot, however the side closest to Disneyland is several smaller lots with several things between it.
Do you think they will remove the current pedestrian bridge given the road under it will be gone?
Do you think they'll build a new parking structure for hotel guests?
Do you think the Disneyland hotel entrance will be moved if its behind a bunch of theme park space?
Do you also think they might go for a multi level solution beyond just a bridge from the park?

I am very curious on what people think they might do

I included a concept I made of something that could maybe work for the space but it is definitely rough, its lightly based off Mysterious Island at Disneysea, due to how it utilizes its footprint very well.

I am not saying that Aquatopia would be a worthy replacement for Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage, but rather if we had to choose something to fit in the submarines' spot, would Aquatopia be a high contender?

I feel like it would make good use of the Tomorrowland lagoon, although it wouldn't be as deep anymore. The theming can be altered to fit in too.

To add on to this, Aquatopia is destined to close forever soon, so the exclusivity or clone status wont be a factor against it coming here.

What do you think?
