38. A Stroll Down Sunset Boulevard: Backstories & Hidden History in Disney's Hollywood Studios
Description
The restaurants, shops, and even sidewalks of Sunset Boulevard are telling you a story with every step you take, some of which even speak to places that no longer exist.
In this episode of Distory, we walk you down this fascinating street in Disney's Hollywood Studios (or rather Disney-MGM Studios, as it was originally called), to highlight some of historical context built into the designs. We'll explore the clever theming of several quick-service restaurants and what their clues tell us about the year the boulevard is set in before discovering a connection between the Tower of Terror and two other Disney parks, long before the attraction was created in any of them.
Note: This episode was recorded with us both LIVE in Hollywood Studios, enjoy the energy of the crowd & sounds of Disney around us!
