Monorail to Epcot...Center?


At the Polynesian Resort they have a number of signs to the monorail stations both at the hotel and the TTC. Some of those signs still show signs of the classic Epcot Center days. Look at how the spacing is with & Epcot. It looks like it isn't spaced quite right - or is it? Turn Epcot into Epcot Center and it fits perfectly. When the name changed they simply removed Center from the signs by apparently sanding down the raised letters. Even up until a couple years ago there were still a few signs where you could read where they only partially sanded down the Center. I'm still trying to find a photo of one of those but for now here is one where they took off the Center completely...

That is great!

I love signage posts and the Polynesian has some of the best resort signs.

I would have never noticed the missing Center!

Mahalo!

When they decide to change the name back, then they'll have to go back and add those letters back. At least the spacing is still right :)
