I haven’t done any technical calculations. On a quick glance I’d say all of this parking is about half the size of the park itself. Very little parking inside the main park boundaries, which is mostly for service vehicles (these spaces aren’t highlighted).

Just something I was curious about, it’s wild how much we accommodate, and how much space we waste, for cars.

Edit: not shown is the large lot southeast of the park. It is about three times the size of the lot to the southwest. There are other lots further outside the picture that add additional parking space not shown. Thanks to RvTV95XBeo for pointing this out.

      But you’re forgetting that this would be a private company not a government. Disney doesn’t have to answer to voters and other corporate interests. They just convince their board of directors it’s a good idea then the checks are written and mickey construction gets to work.

        I dont think even they are powerful enough to extend the local train all the way to the airport…but i could be wrong as a private company is trying to build a high speed line from vegas to socal…
