Without warning, Disney is undergoing demolition once again. Check out the current status along Disney’s Boardwalk
Tower of Terror Billboard Removed
If you have ever taken the bus, Magical Express, or driven your own car you have likely seen the iconic Tower of Terror billboard. The promotional billboard has been around for decades and entices you to ride the popular attraction.
It sits on World Drive just outside Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Check out the full story HERE. The billboard is one of the few attraction promotions that can be found on the property. Yesterday, without warning, demolition crews were in place to take down this structure.
Overnight this iconic billboard was turned to mere rubble. Now, demolition crews are moving elsewhere on the Walt Disney World property.
Demolition on the Boardwalk
Described as a resort that evokes turn-of-the-century boardwalks in coastal cities such as Coney Island and Atlantic City, the BoardWalk Resort has a theme that sets it apart from the rest. This resort has fun carnival games, exciting entertainment, and unique dining.
Many of the stores and entertainment options remained closed for quite some time even after the parks reopened in 2020. One such location appears to be permanently erased from the landscape of Disney’s Boardwalk.
Today, Scott Gustin shared on Twitter that more demolition is in progress at Disney’s Boardwalk. The ESPN Club opened in 1996 and permanently closed earlier this year.
Demolition began today on the ESPN Club along Disney’s Boardwalk.
This location will be replaced with The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers. This is expected to open in 2023. We knew it was coming but were surprised to see work begin today.

We started at the All-Star movies and music, worked our way up to Caribbean Beach then pop century. Been going to the Otten Beach club now for 15 years wouldn’t have it any other way. Yes we missed the ESPN club however to be honest we found other things to do. I’m kind of embarrassed to say it but we just ate at Chef De France last month after all these decades. Being able to walk in to the back gate of Epcot is magical. I was just on the Disney wish with my wife, who works there. We got to eat at 1923 Roy Disney’s restaurant. I made the awkward mistake of asking what the relevance of 1923. What kind of Disney kid am I age 63.5 now. Lol stay magical!!!
