Parks and Resorts- Magic Kingdom Roundup- Liberty Square



Liberty Square is a true gem of a land because it is pure storytelling with Americana. Though this land is small, it is packed with content and talent, but is there room for improvement? Sure.

The current roster in Liberty Square includes

Haunted Mansion
The Hall of Presidents
The Muppets present great moments in American History
Liberty Square Riverboat

There is also the restaurants

Liberty Tree Tavern
Diamond Horseshoe
Columbia Harbour House
and the Liberty Square Market cart

This is a great lineup with few misses, but the land could still use additional material. Obviously the problem is land, but there is still room for a few areas to plus.

First, I think the Muppet idea is great, but let's make it permanent as an attraction. It needs an actual building where people can sit, it should be extended some. I recommend it next door to the Hall of Presidents.

Second, I also recommend branching out into this theme a little bit more. Let's have an exhibit on the founders; who was Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Samuel Adams, etc. Let's have Common Sense available to read. Let's have a room seated much like the delegates sat at the Constitutional convention.

Third, I suggest a revamping of Liberty tree tavern (it's ok, but food quality can be improved), and turn one of the other counter service places into another full service place.

Fourth, we need a true Haunted Mansion gift shop...and maybe a restaurant? That may be too tacky, but why is there no true Haunted Mansion gift shop...forget the cart!

Fifth, Sleepy Hollow...find a way to add this theme in there (it's already in a Disney film "the adventures of Ichabod and mr. toad)

Sixth- More current IP...how about National Treasure? That could make a great attraction where you're moving in search of an artifact (think forbidden journey technology).

Seventh- This will seem strange, but I believe the shops in a land make the atmosphere. Here, the Christmas shop is great, but let's also add an antique store, an old time book store/library on American history, and art/sculptures could be good.





Thoughts?
