The Test Wall
Walt Disney had big dreams when he was in the planning process for Disneyland, and he knew that he wanted everything to be perfect – down to the last brick. Quite literally, in fact.
With a huge amount of money under his belt, Walt was able to play around with the construction of Disneyland to ensure that it fit his specifications and his vision perfectly. In fact, if you have walked down Main Street USA you may have seen a water fountain on a rather strange looking wall.
The brick wall that holds this water fountain is one of the most bizarre things in the park. Rather than being perfectly formed, it actually features bricks that come in all shapes and sizes. That’s because Walt used this as a test wall. He wanted to see which size and shape brick he preferred, so he built a wall featuring all of the options.
