a Magic Kingdom where the young at heart of all ages can laugh and play and learn together. May Walt Disney World bring Joy and Inspiration and New Knowledge to all who come to this happy place. and to the talents, the dedication, and the loyalty of the entire Disney organization that made Walt Disney's dream come true. Walt Disney World is a tribute to the philosophy and life of Walter Elias Disney. Epcot's Future World and Disney Springs' Pleasure Island each have a smaller network of utilidors. The tunnels were intended to be designed into all subsequent Walt Disney World parks but were set aside mostly because of financial constraints.
The utilidors were built in the initial construction and were not extended as the park expanded. The area around the utilidors was filled in with dirt removed from the Seven Seas Lagoon, which was being constructed at the same time. īecause of Florida's high water table, the tunnels could not be put underground, so they were built at the existing grade, meaning the park is built on the second story, giving the Magic Kingdom an elevation of 108 feet (33 m). Magic Kingdom was built over a series of tunnels called utilidors, a portmanteau of utility and corridor, allowing employees (called "cast members") or VIP guests to move through the park out of sight. The park was built as a larger, improved version of Disneyland Park in California. After Walt's death, Walt Disney Productions began construction on Magic Kingdom and the entire resort in 1967.
