That is really sad to me. I understand the park will always be changing and is never truly completed…but that was part of the original (within a year) Disneyland park. I always liked to look at it when I walked by. I do hope the new Star Wars Land replaces it well!
I’m sad to see it go, but by the same token it’d been really clear for decades that Disney wasn’t ever going to repurpose it (probably because it’d be prohibitive to make it ADA compliant on top of that hill). It’s been mouldering for ages, I imagine they figured it was as good a time as it was going to get to remove it completely. Mind you I wouldn’t be surprised to see, like, a tiny version of it spring up somewhere, like in the treeline of the canal boats or somewhere in Fantasyland.
Do you know if it was demolished during park hours. My family spent most of Tues/wed in that area and I’m concerned about asbestos and other dust from demolition.
