Note: A very good graphic of the project can be found here... http://www.ocregister.com/newsimages/news/2005/11/02gardenwalk.graphic.swf

QuikQuote:With lease negotiators working on deals with sought-after retailers such as H&M, Hollister and Banana Republic and restaurants such as Bar Louie, the new developers of the 19.3-acre, 60-store Anaheim GardenWalk are hoping to finally bring to a close the saga of the project, which has languished for nearly seven years, leaving passers-by wondering what was to become of the fenced-off vacant lot just east of Disneyland's main gates.
Construction is expected to begin in May with stores opening in October 2007. The first of three proposed hotels, from 11 to 13 stories high, and a 400-unit timeshare could be completed by mid-2008. Two more hotels could be built by 2010, for a total of 1,200 new hotel rooms in the complex.

Interesting to note, if you check out the graphic, you will see a Disney Store and A Children's Place will be tenants.

No, these are two different projects, this one has been in the works for YEARS and is between Disney Way and Katella, just east of Harbor.

Here is a link to an article talking about the "Grand Parkway", which would go thru the Strawberry Field.

If you check the OC Register graphic, there is a map at the bottom right, find the Convention Center, the Strawberry Fields would be to the right, and just below the Convention Center. (East side of Harbor, but about one block south of Katella).
