Disney announced the launch of Storyliving, a new community for fans to live in that incorporates the company's brand of magic."I think it was deeply meaningful for the Disney team to make this first of this new series of communities here, in a place that meant so much" to Walt and Lillian Disney, said Brent Herrington, CEO of DMB Development.
"We're very lucky that Walt has roots here, to the Coachella Valley," said Hundgen."He used to come and he brought his Imagineers, his animators, and they would come to be inspired, they would come to use it as a creative outlet. And so we're bringing forward that same legacy as we think about what we hope for the residents here."
There has been no word yet on the prices of the homes. They are set to go on sale in early 2023 and the first residents are expected to move in in 2024.
Shame on Disney and Coachella valley. This is an environmentally irresponsible project given the drought and water emergency of Southern California. A 24 acre freshwater lagoon is a travesty in our current water crisis.
