Disney has officially killed the Downtown Disney hotel project.

The behind-the-scenes stuff on this between Disney and Anaheim must be outrageous.

Responses:

Whoa. What'd they tear down? Can they just re-open those places? -- nm - Mop Oct 10, 17:24 2
- They closed Earl of Sandwich and then re-opened in a matter of weeks. -- nm - David Oct 10, 18:07
- One of the closed businesses was the Rainforest Cafe. Not sure if it had yet been demolished.....Budice? -- nm - Meg Oct 10, 17:47
Disney has enough on its plate. Plus I prefer a Downtown Disney to another hotel. Other 5 Star hotels are going in including JW Marriott -- nm - budice Oct 10, 16:07 9
- Anaheim has a living wage ballot initiative that kicks up minimum wage to $18/hr -- nm - budice Oct 10, 16:09 8
  - Doesn't apply to Disney, though. -- nm - David Oct 10, 16:16 1
    - Yes but had the hotel incentives kicked in, it would have according to most lawyers in the area. And would again if Disney tries to get incentives. -- nm* - budice Oct 10, 16:17
  - The only reason the hotel was going in was the old Council offered $270M in incentives if they wanted to build a hotel. At fhe original spot. -- nm* - budice Oct 10, 16:13 5
    - Current Anaheim Council is pro Citizens/Labor. The opposition are resort district investors. -- nm* - budice Oct 10, 16:15 4
      - I posted these links to you! -- nm - David Oct 10, 16:16 3
        
        I knew these things long before you mentioned anything -- nm* - budice Oct 10, 16:17 2
        
        Okay, Iger! -- nm - David Oct 10, 16:30 1
        
        It's just baffling. Do they sit on their hands and build nothing until city council changes? -- nm - Mop Oct 10, 17:26
