Though this Summer has already brought us many new character events, one is now undoubtedly stealing the show every day. Well, she does have a big advantage — a shiny vintage car… on Hollywood Blvd!

It’s forever a waiting game at Studio Tram Tour. When will it change, when will it expand? No news that studio-shattering today, but at least a brand new electronic Wait Time sign to finally replace the temporary magnetic version.

Three years of construction, six years of waiting and an investment of over €150m finally reached its spectacular climax on 5th April 2008, when the wrapping paper was ripped from The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror to reveal a living, breathing Hollywood legend…

(4.04.2008 6:00pm - 5.04.2008 12:00pm) Any good celebration needs a whole lot of preparation beforehand. From flowers to film crews, let’s take a stroll around the parks as the countdown to the celebration begins all over again…

“Oh boy!” Mickey and Minnie have taken their first trip to Hollywood at Walt Disney Studios Park, and by the looks of it these two famous mice were more than a little surprised by the ensemble of thrills and theme which now fill the heart of their park. “Hot dawg!”

What would all the landmark Disney attractions be without their nighttime illuminations? The Tower of Terror is up there with the best of them, and now testing its spectacular display of eerie colours and lights, glowing on the Marne-la-Vallée skyline…

Hollywood just wouldn’t be Hollywood without its palm trees. Yesterday, the first four of many giant palms were planted (or rather, “installed”) in their new home at Walt Disney Studios Park, lining one side Hollywood Boulevard. It’s remarkable what a few tropical trees can do to a skyline…

Hollywood Boulevard’s placemaking grows with more signage, a fully-realised tunnel entrance and two slices of the Hollywood Hills themselves, continuing to liven up Walt Disney Studios Park with new colours, details and architecture - whether three-dimensional or not.

Hollywood Boulevard welcomes the completion of a second façade as the park’s hub at Disney Bros Plaza sees the removal of several trees. From the doors of Disney Studio 1, the placemaking movie sets now provide a full Hollywood panorama, even turning two dimensions to three.

Hollywood Boulevard continues to develop at an increasingly brisk pace, its buildings taking on warm coffee colours and even real windows. As the horizon of the new street slowly comes together, a familiar Disney landmark has made a surprise visit from California… the El Capitan.

When the Imagineers presented Disney Studio 1, they commented that it presents “a Hollywood that only truly exists in our dreams.” The same could have been said for Hollywood Boulevard until recently — a project we’ve watched grow for several months, but never seen a true vision of their plans for. It all had to exist only in our minds, until this exciting new concept art came along…

Would you like to take a stroll around Hollywood Boulevard? You’ll have to wait until 2008 to take a real stroll along this movie set street, but don’t worry — you don’t have to wait so long for our promised photo and video tour of the development, offering a closer look at the effect of the changes, for anyone who hasn’t had the chance to visit Walt Disney Studios Park during these exciting months…

Don’t worry, DLRP Today isn’t branching out into stock market reports — at Walt Disney Studios Park, there’s both movie magic in the making and movie magic in the process of being ripped apart. The Hollywood Boulevard project, after several weeks of important but less noticable progress on its façades, suddenly enjoyed a landmark week of changes to its new — and old — landmarks.

Hollywood Boulevard’s progress continues to be more than a little unbalanced, the ‘Sweet Success‘ tower still racing ahead whilst the rest of the placemaking remains as bare steel frames. Now, we know that our version of ‘Sweet Success‘ has an extra dome on its roof… but would you believe its walls also already have more detail than the Disney-MGM equivalent? C’est PrefabMagique!
Saturday, 21st July 2007
Our previous Hollywood Boulevard update covering its new tower and dome skipped over the milestone of three new steel frame structures — for the two skyscrapers and tunnel — going vertical on the Studios’ new central street. But this development is still progressing fast and, whilst new landmarks have risen, the smallest of Hollywood details elsewhere have already begun the real theming…
