Can't find it right now, but I've been saving an article for a couple of years now that states Disney would soon start work on the third park in the DL area. (Dated the summer before DCA opened, I think.)
The article said that Disney bought orchards, or was it "farmland", a block from the park. I believe it was 80 something acres.
That was the last I heard. Has anyone heard anything similar? What was going in or is there still a plan for something else. Does anyone know where this land sits?

They did buy all that vacant land behind the Raddison Hotel. Before DCA opened they planned on building a third park to help take in the mass number of people they expected to flock to the DLR as a result of the immense popularity of DCA( I am not making this up....they really did think people would like this um er theme park).

They also had planned on building Disney Seas ; not in Tokyo but in Long Beach.......I know this because I live just a few miles from where the Spruce Goose was sent to free up land for this new park.

As for that vacant area just east of Harbor(se of dl).......a third rate water park was in the early planning stages before 9-11-01. Now, I think all plans are on hold:(

The land bought used to be strawberry fields. The family had farmed it for decades.

I heard alot of rumors about the 3rd park but I know they purchased the land which was once strawberry feild or something. I dont really know what there going to do with it in the future, im sure they will do something with it only time will tell. Hopefully it will be something pretty cool.
