When the castle was recently painted the spire which had been left unfinished, as a symbol that "Disneyland will never be finished"(Walt), was painted gold like all the other spires. That just happens to be the one spire that was damaged during the giant curtain debacle. Hmmm

Just because it's gone doesn't mean I changed my mind! :cwink:

When we took the Walk in Walt's Footsteps tour last year, our guide told us that it was left unpainted to represent that the Park would never be complete...
Why would the guide (of a genuine Disney tour) tell us an urban legend. Now if he started telling us about Walt's frozen head...

Urban legend. Disney has some fact checking on this, it is not true. The spire was left a different color so that it would 'stand out'. Not because they did not get around to finishing the paint job or that it was left unfinished to make a point. It was just painted a different color.The Next Big Disney Thing:starts Jan. 3rd

MrMainStreet is correct. WDI had a certain "look" in mind and they wanted that spire to stand out. It was not left unfinished, it was actually painted that way on purpose. Later, before the recent rehab, WDI admitted in The Line that the "stand out" spire never really worked in the way they had intended. So when the castle went into rehab, the stand-out look went away forever.~ Tasty, yet morally ambiguous! ~
