Great news for Disney shopaholics: the brand new
World of Disney store at the entrance of
Disney Village, scheduled to open in early 2012, just took a major step forward. Right as the huge steel sub-structure of the new flagship shop was completed a couple of weeks ago (see
MagicEmotion’s 19th Feb photo below) the first concrete walls are already rising. And at last, that bleak grey façade of the Gaumont multiplex cinema is being hidden from the landscape of Disneyland Paris! At least… partly so. According to
the concept art, the new store
will mostly cover the wall above (will they take down the jaunty posters first?), but the side of the building seen below will certainly remain visible in the gap between
World of Disney and the IMAX, added in 2005, at least until those
resort expansion plans finally get going with a second Disney Village street, whenever that might be.
