Except the malls like Orlando Premium outlets just around the corner from DTD used this architecture years ago and have mostly the same shops. I'd imagine the prices will be less too.

Having watched videos online, the new area is not Disney at all... its a Florida shopping mall?
I don't think that is such a bad thing. Maybe more people will be attracted to shop there if it feels local. I have always enjoyed the area but a lick of paint and a new river...plus some dining and shopping options looks great I think.

Totally not bothered by all the stores that you can find at the other outlets, - but really hoping the Coca Cola store will be open when I go in August - I love the one in Vegas

Absolutely everything you could think of - with a coca cola logo on it! Lots of nice homeware, clothing, bags, jewellery - everything! Plus the 'cafe' upstairs where they serve every variation of coke (frozen coke!) and other drinks they make from all around the world. They do a couple of trays of little shot glasses with 'flavours of the world' samplers - bit like Russian roulette as some are disgusting Here's a few reviews yelp/biz/everything...cola-las-vegas
