It's funny how many names are recycled between various Disney locations. With the article talking about California Grill and the Yacht Club, it could easily be mistaken for a WDW story

They removed the fountain in front of Studio 1.

I agree that turning the fountain into a planter is a bad choice, and doesn't even look particularly nice due to the design. I hope that this is just seasonal for the winter, but I doubt it And the new colors on iasw still look really good. They're so different that it takes some time to get used to it, but they look really nice in everything I've seen so far. It's also good that they're not planning to add characters to the ride
