Earlier this year, one quarter of Main Street, U.S.A., in Disneyland park reopened with a new look and new spaces. From the delicious decor in the Candy Palace to the new display in the Disney Gallery, the magic truly is in the details. Discover these details in the video tour below with Imagineer Kim Irvine, then stop by Main Street, U.S.A., to see them for yourself!

While Jim continues with his fantasy life, I must say they did a nice job remodeling that section of Main Street in the past year. It's much more lavish and fresh looking, compared to previous versions. |

When Barry Braverman popped off and dissed Kim for having very little talent back in 2001, then fired her as the WDI-Anaheim Art Director, you knew where he was going to eventually end up. Going after Kim was a dumb move on his part. She's got the goods. Barry never did. Kim is still working for WDI, while Barry is 'consulting' somewhere, in an undisclosed location.
Quality trumps all.

Braverman was in charge of the original Journey into Imagination ride at Epcot, which is one of the most beloved attractions of all time. Yah, he certainly screwed things up at the end of his time, but but to say that he never did the right things is oversimplifying the situation |

Uh, no. Tony Baxter was the Imagineer in charge. Barry was but one of many Imagineers working on the Imagination pavilion, along with Julie Svendsen. Barry's main contribution to the pavilion was as show producer for ImageWorks, the educational stuff upstairs.
