Work continues on the coming San Fransokyo Square at Disney California Adventure and a lot of progress has been made on the bridge since our last update in May.
- The towers have gone up on the bridge as it begins to more closely resemble the Golden Gate Bridge.
- The transformation to the bridge is just a small part of the work on the San Fransokyo Square area that is set to open later this summer.
- Check out some photos of the bridge below, as well as concept art for the eventual finished product.
More on San Fransokyo Square:
- Back at D23 Expo 2022, Disney Parks announced that Pacific Wharf in Disney California Adventure park will turn into San Fransokyo, the city that played home to Hiro, Baymax, and their friends from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Academy Award-winning Big Hero 6.
- Recently, guests at Disney California Adventure may have seen that this exciting transformation has already begun, and today, Disney Parks has announced that later this summer, during the Disney100 celebration at Disneyland Resort, you will be able to step into the new area, named San Fransokyo Square.
- San Fransokyo Square will transport guests to the not-too-distant future in a fictional mash-up of two iconic cities – San Francisco and Tokyo. As the tech industry began to emerge and the local fishing trade fell on hard times, entrepreneurs came together to reinvent the seaside canneries into a vibrant, multicultural district of neighborhood restaurants and small businesses where you’ll be able to eat and shop.
- An iconic landmark of the area will be the San Fransokyo Gate Bridge, which will span the tide pools linking San Fransokyo Square to the Paradise Gardens Park obelisk.
- Once you cross the bridge, you’ll catch a view of the floating wind turbine atop an old fishing net tannery, powering the district from high in the sky. Clues to the area’s storied and charming past can be found in the details throughout San Fransokyo Square.
- Outside a converted warehouse at the south end of San Fransokyo, you may have the opportunity to encounter Baymax.
