Disneyland Files First Construction Permit for Major Park Expansion
Disneyland has officially filed the first construction permit for its major DisneylandForward expansion. This permit specifically targets the future site of the new parking structure and transportation hub planned for the east side of the resort, marking the initial physical steps toward the project’s construction.
The newly filed construction permit, designated BLD2025-05043, lists the project address as 1509 S Harbor Blvd in Anaheim, California. It is currently categorized as being under Plan Review by the city.
The permit reads:
“DLR – East Esplanade – Site Work: Install 15 ln ft x 8 ft high chain link fence and 128 ln ft x 8 ft high wood fence.”
This permit is tied to the construction of a new parking structure and a pedestrian bridge on the east side of the Disneyland Resort. Construction is scheduled to begin in Fall 2026 and is expected to take multiple years to finish. The filing of this permit suggests that fencing will soon be erected to mark off the upcoming construction areas.
The DisneylandForward initiative, which received unanimous approval from the Anaheim City Council on May 7, 2024, is the resort’s ambitious expansion plan. Work quickly began on the Disney California Adventure side with the Avengers Campus expansion, which is set to include two new attractions: Avengers: Infinity Defense and Stark Flight Lab.
Construction is also anticipated to start soon on the first-ever Cocoattraction, conceptualized as a boat ride through the vibrant Land of the Dead. Further expansion projects for the Disneyland Resort include an Avatar land that is expected to replace the Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue attraction. Additionally, public records indicate that the city of Anaheim is considering a Skyliner-esque aerial gondola system that would include a stop at the Disneyland Resort.
