Overview
- The demolition, which began Friday, has already removed roughly half the landing, including the dock along the former Rivers of America.
- The tower by The Haunted Mansion and a section near the former Riverboat Landing remain behind construction walls, with the old stairway to the dock still visible.
- Walt Disney Imagineering’s January “general construction” permit lists MLC Theming, whose scenic and rockwork specialties suggest possible cleanup or re-theming once demolition wraps.
- Disney’s released Piston Peak concept art and the playful “fun map” do not show the landing site, leaving any re-use of remaining pieces uncertain.
- Piston Peak National Park will replace Rivers of America and Tom Sawyer Island with a Cars-themed wilderness area featuring two attractions, new original characters, careful sightlines, and added water features.
