New Tomorrowland entrance to be completed next year

Tomorrowland at Disneyland is getting a brand new entrance in 2020 as part of the larger Project Stardust park improvement project. This updated entrance will feature wider pathways to improve access for guests as well as Space Age-inspired spires that recall the past of Tomorrowland. Disney Imagineer Kim Irvine released the following statement about the project:

Tomorrowland has always represented a feeling of optimism. [Imagineer] John Hench originally designed the land with this notion of being wide open to innovative ideas and technology. When we started looking at the different Tomorrowland entrances through the years, both the 1955 and 1967 versions had a very optimistic appeal which resonated with us.”

 

Construction is now underway on this entrance, and though the concept art above gives guests a rough idea about what this new area will look like, there's one funny detail that may catch some guests' eye that you might be able to spy in this close up:

If you look way in the background of the image you can see the shadow of the long-defunct Rocket Rods attraction! We don't expect this attraction to return ever, so just chalk this up to a funny mistake on Disney's part.
