The park operated for at least 16 years with that alleyway open. Please explain to me what this space is needed for, besides a couple of dumpsters and a place to store food carts when not in use? When Disneyland needed more space, they moved their administration team offsite so the onsite services could expand into the administration areas. When management takes space from the park, the tail is wagging the dog.

The property has ample open space. At the back of WOO there is around 20,000 SQM of open space and thats still allowing significant space around the water tank, and buffers from soundstages. Which in turn can be the past. If it changed once it can change again. If maintenance needs additional high-rise space, should they just close Scooby Doo too? Say it with me - SUPPORT FACILITIES SHOULD NOT OCCUPY ATTRACTION SPACE AT THE EXPENSE OF ATTRACTIONS.

Stupidest thing they ever did moving maintenance in there They should have built a proper purpose built maintenance facility up the back of the park used the existing one for parade storage and kept the ride building as a ride

Time to think vertically. Parking can be put into a parking lot. Cooking can be done on level 2 of a building. Same with staff facilities. Main St is supposed to be multiple stories high, why not actually make it that and go up. I mean I know, cost ect but if my local car dealership can build a parking garage to store cars to be delivered or serviced that day, I'm sure Village could spend a little here and get back some space.

Where were those things being stored prior to being dumped in the lane way for the near 2 decades it was a public accessible area? It’s not like the park has had an exponential increase in the number of food carts, mops and buckets, and bread dollies. It’s likely one day someone dumped something there out of a minuscule amount of convenience, and it started a chain reaction. what has been done can be undone

Just because the park made stupid short sighted decisions out of convenience (see also: LTRR show building storage), doesn't mean it can't go back to the way it used to be - which gave much better guest flow around the park.

The area highlighted is used as crew parking for various productions at the studios. When the studios have multiple productions happening at once, there are hundreds of cars that need to go somewhere. In 2022, Ticket to Paradise, Irreverent, Young Rock 2 and Nautilus were using every single building on the VRS lot. The buildings just under the highlighted area are Special Effects workshops, set construction buildings and other offices for production-essential companies. This would effectively proposing to split the studios in half. While I agree that BOH areas should stay BOH and shouldn't interrupt attractions or guest flow through the park, the theme park support facilities also shouldn't occupy Studio space at the expense of the Productions.

Here's a photo I found while scrolling through the Movie World loaction thing on Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/p/CujgoEgvKu3/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D

Yup, that's me! Thank you, I appreciate it!

While that may be the case, it wasn't always that way. Village has plenty of room to construct a maintenance facility elsewhere - a soundstage intended to be part of the park's footprint shouldn't be occupied by back of house purposes for convenience if it prevents the park from future growth.
