I had no idea they were originally planning on building The Legendary Years section too! Pop Century is one of my favorite resorts to stay at!

There are SO many resorts that go away, it’s pretty interesting to learn about them!

I haven’t stayed at Pop yet, but I’ve gone there a few times for lunch - I do love the All Star food courts! Maybe I’m crazy but I prefer the variety to some of the other resorts!

I was glad to see those vacant buildings turned into the great Art of Animation! Thanks for sharing!
