WALT DISNEY’S APARTMENT

This is an entry in our Disneyland 101 Glossary: Disneyland Resort definitions in under 101 words, from Mouse Brief.

Walt Disney kept an apartment for himself at Disneyland Park above the fire house on MAIN STREET U.S.A. When Walt Disney would stay in the apartment, he would let cast members know he was there by lighting a lamp. The lamp in the apartment window is now kept burning in Walt Disney’s honor. To see it, enter Disneyland Park, pass City Hall on your left and you will arrive at a red brick building with a “Disneyland Fire Dept.” sign. Look up to the second story. A look at the interior of the apartment is included in select tours.

Before his death, Walt Disney began work on a second larger apartment at Disneyland Park. For more on this see our post “21 Royal” on Sunday, November 10. Subscribe below to get all future posts in your email inbox.
