The Anaheim City Council has approved Disneyland's largest expansion in nearly 30 years. The project, called DisneylandForward, creates an investment of $1.9 billion over the next decade in the park, which welcomes about 25 million visitors annually.
The company uses recent examples of attractions added to its international parks to illustrate what the new offerings could look like. It has changed the use of six properties that are today used as offices and parking lots for employees of the company's two parks, Disneyland opened in 1955, and California Adventure, which opened its doors in 2001, to be used for a new amusement park, the company said in a statement. It is customary for the company, which keeps its plans under jealous secrecy, to not detail what it will use the space for that has seen its land use permit modified. But Disney also outlines a 'new kind of entertainment' at another location, across Katella Avenue.
