Be prepared there are a few comments that are very un-PC, but keep in mind this was written in 1954 and is a written history in itself of tha More...
This really is incredible! I wish there was more to read & aerial photos from when this was written... Very cool piece of Disney history, thanks for sharing! - DiamondInTheRough

Wow, I had forgotten about the moving walkway that went to the monorail. I think his vision of Main St was pretty spot on, down to the taped second floor 'happenings'. What a nice read, thanks Gia. - Linzee

Are any of you finding your mail boxes overwhelmed with old posts? I've had close to 100 (lost count!)! I tried emailing admin but it didn't go through; I also tried unsubscribing but it didn't take. Hopefully he sees it here!
Just change it to the spam folder for now. Once admin fixes things then change it back to inbox. - VfxGenie
