Disneyland Files Demolition Permit to Clear Site for 6,000-Space Eastern Gateway Garage

The move signals a shift from planning to site preparation for an eastern parking-transportation hub under DisneylandForward.

Overview

  • A City of Anaheim permit confirms demolition of the 70,732-square-foot Team Disney Anaheim East office building at the Manchester cast parking lot.
  • The filing specifies that utilities will be capped and the building’s foundation will remain in place for future integration.
  • The cleared site is designated for the Eastern Gateway project with a roughly 6,000-space parking structure, transportation facilities, and a planned pedestrian bridge over Harbor Boulevard.
  • Construction on the garage is scheduled to begin in fall 2026 as a multiyear effort supporting the resort’s broader expansion.
  • Disney has not publicly detailed relocation plans for the administrative and operations staff who work in the affected building.
