About half of their land is undeveloped. They’re only allowed to develop a fraction of what they own to preserve the local wetlands, so whenever they expand they need to buy up more land to offset what they develop.

Disney already tried pulling this kinda thing again in Virginia when they tried building Disney's America and the locals made VARY clear that they would never concede to having a Theme park like Disney build in their home state.

[@hewhohasnoidentity4377]

The primary argument against Disney America was that the nearby interstate couldn't handle the traffic. The local community didn't accomplish much. The land is now high density residential and the residents fought against paying for and having the interstate widened. Disney would have been a better neighbor. They also would have provided jobs instead of houses to hold yet more people that need jobs. I'm not sure that the people you think won actually did.

The “Florida project” secret wasn’t as much for land prices soaring, it was mainly because Walt didn’t want other businesses like hotels and restaurants buying property close by like what happened Disneyland. This is from a WDW tour.

[@LeanMrfuzzles]

Walt wanted a ton of land to keep those businesses away, yes. But he also wanted the cost to be low so he could buy up as much land as possible. If they knew Walt Disney was buying up land the price would have skyrocketed.

[@ItsHollowfied]

he vote passing don't really matter then as Disney -prob- filled those lands or own them at this point

[@ChrisNebergall]

You didn't even mention the best part: that Walt's actual plan was to build a CITY on that site, a futuristic city which he would control like some kind of sci-fi company town. Everyone in the city would work for Disney or its partner companies and Disney would also own all the homes and public services. The theme park aspect was added only to appease investors. When Walt died, the company immediately tossed the city idea and built a resort instead. The theme park EPCOT (Experimental Prototype City of Tomorrow) carries the city's intended name.

[@shadowwind4775]

And that is why it was called originally EPCOT Center. Walt had planned to have an entertainment district in the center of the city. Later on, they dropped the center part and made Epcot a word, which I never quite understood. But the name "EPCOT Center" was how Disney justified building a theme park and not building out the city and still say it was Walt's vision.

[@Deathstorm927]

You have to appreciate the fact that even though Walt Disney used underhanded tactics to secure victory, he was still honest about the idea of imagination, and really did love originality unlike modern day Disney and other companies who extort nostalgia for profit, Walt really did want to make people happy

Slightly off-topic, but I’ve always wondered if Walt himself would’ve enjoyed Kingdom Hearts. Seeing all of these characters in a whole new light, alongside new characters and characters from other places, with this whole crazy storyline. I feel like he would’ve been really proud of the video game series. I also feel like he would’ve let Square Enix be more free with their ideas within the series, because he loved being creative with his writing more than being as worried with the “innocent reputation” of his characters. (Walt is the same guy who wrote comics with Mickey and Donald being in the World Wars, I think he would’ve been okay with an evil Elsa in KHIII or Donald sucker-punching a Han in the face).

He didn't intend at first to build a park, but a city And it's name was EPCOT Experimental Prototype City Of Tomorrow So yeah, a city needs its own government, but bc he died before he could begin the construction of the city, the other people helping him didn't have the courage of such a huge project they decided to just leave it as a park

[@ocarinagirlandthestories648]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Disney could take over the world if they wanted to. Edit: Someone warned me about Mickey coming to my house, another said that the movies with absolute monarchies were warnings, both those comments are deleted now. With one exception, all the comments that are left are disagreeing with me. Something fishy is going on here.

They are a 300 billion dollar company, yes that’s a big company, but wasn’t America trying to sell a state to Canada for 1 trillion dollars?, that’s one state for that much money, I guess.

The tech giants, like Apple, Google, Amazon, and Microsoft, could purchase Disney with their pocket change.

There where rumors of Disney coming to TX, my father in law told me once people found out who really was buying the land, they raised the prices and Disney stopped buying. As of now no one visits those lots, I sometimes hunted on it back than. But none has tried reselling and no one is building on it. Across the street some land owners are selling thier land for residential purposes. So time will tell if they will attempt to buy more or sell it like everybody else around here for homes to be built.

Yeah, this justifies my off feeling for a place like Disneyworld. Something about this “Disneyfied” place becoming its own govt tramples into the uncanny valley area. I’d feel uncomfortable there, as it’s essentially its own city, but cleaned, polished, and gimmicky... fake. Very uncanny valley.

[@LeanMrfuzzles]

These cities only exist to get around the government bureaucracy and because the land was stretched across two different counties. Only a handful of families actually live in these cities and they work for Disney. Bay Lake has a population of 61 and Lake Buena Vista has a population of 4. It’s not what you think it is.

He actually wanted it to be in Valdosta/Lake Park, Georgia first cause of the low taxes/land there. But certain rich families that “ran” the city pushed him out. Afterwards, he ultimately decided on Orlando.

Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."

It was supposed to be a real city with real families and real homes where those people living there would govern their own city. Instead. Epcot became a giant world fair like theme park instead with no real citizens so Disney itself ruled the government over that district with is counter to why it was awarded in the first place.
