Vintage Walt Disney World Resort

I just found this in my stuff. Someone in Florida gave it to me 10-12 years ago.

I believe that I was told that the road in the foreground is Rt 192 in Kissimmee and that it was the approximate area that became World Drive.
 
Looking at some of the old pictures, amazing that so many people seemed to be wearing long slacks & dress pants. Don't see much of that anymore. Comfort comes first....I always pack a pair of long jeans for the Orlando trip in case of a cold day/night. I have yet to ever wear them.

Downtown Disney Walt Disney World Resort Youtopia (2014)





A bustling metropolis of shopping, dining and entertainment locations, Disney Springs is the exciting reimagination of Downtown Disney. It consists of four neighborhoods: The Landing, Marketplace, West Side and Town Center.

The 120-acre Disney Springs is in the east-central portion of Walt Disney World Resort. Disney Springs borders the south shore of Lake Buena Vista at the intersection of Buena Vista Drive and Hotel Plaza Boulevard.
 
The Jimmy Carter Library tweeted out this gold from 40 years ago. I love 5:52-6:00 - "The Presidential Party viewed an Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow".

I can't help but anytime I hear "Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow" in Walt's voice, is always an odd sign of comfort haha. This is a cool find!
