Doesn't anyone have have any POP photos to share. This was my first time staying there & it was nice. I'll start off by sharing this one.

I stayed at Pop during Mousefest 2006. I had one of those Mickey phones, too. (it had Touch Tone buttons so not as old as this one)

Not the sharpest photo as this was taken without a tripod and before I got a VR lens. Still, I like it because I never could figure out that Rubik's Cube!

Every trip I expect to see a little more progress on the early years portion of the resort. ; Every year it looks exactly like this.

Does anyone know if they're every going to complete the resort?

bdushok, that legendary years building is post-apocalyptic creepy, isn't it?
 
Tim,

Yes, very post-apocalyptic! ; LOL ; Very non-Disney as well. ; I've been surprised at how many years they've left those buildings unfinished.

It appears they have a completely finished bridge that was supposed to join the two resorts. ; Very strange :)

if you look closely enough, you can see unfinished guest room buildings as well. ; just hollow shells without decorations, paint, or trimming. ; eerie.
 
Tim,

I like the lack of staircases on the guest buildings. ; Something just looks wrong without them :)

I wonder if these buildings are weatherized? ; Its a shame to think these buildings are getting destroyed as they just sitting there.

We've stayed at Pop Century for our five times and the place is always packed. ; It's amazing they don't expand the resort. ; It certainly seems popular enough to warrant expansion.

A year ago they seemed to have moved in some heavy equipment, so rumors abound that they are planning on finishing the resort, but will follow the All-Star Music idea and the new section will be completely family suites.

Not sure; except that the resort was the first victim of 9/11[nb]Actually I think the Sleeping Beauty Castle walkthrough was, but it's open again[/nb], after Disney thought they would never have large numbers of vacancies on property.
