Auto Outlook: Toyota bullish on U.S. comeback
ANAHEIM, Calif., May 10 (UPI) -- For sometime now Anaheim, Calif., leaders and the Walt Disney Co. have been locked in a battle over Platinum Pointe.
The city wants to build about 1,275 condos and 225 lower-income apartments where Disney someday hopes to build a third amusement park.
Now, owners of an RV park on the far edge of the resort district want to build a 449-unit condo high-rise, the Los Angeles Times says. The site, home of the Anaheim RV Village, sits across Interstate 5 from Disneyland.
Developers of the proposed Parc Anaheim high-rise see the property, surrounded by two elementary schools, neighborhoods and the freeway, as a gateway to the city's downtown and generally unconnected to the tourist district.
Disney officials say the city, by allowing two residential projects in the zone, may be creating "a land rush" on housing in an area that it has painstakingly groomed for high-end tourism.
