Pics Of the Contemporary Vacation Club!!!!

[sgtpet]

I guess it is not official but it looks like we are getting closer and the design is interesting. 2008 maybe a little on the agressive side.

I've seen 2 places online that referred to it as the "Contemporary Vacation Club" CVC

Not to be Nicky Negative but what are the odd's that this firm just screwed themselves royally by posting information like this on a public website. I don't think Disney will take too kindly to this information being out there.

I hope they have good laywers.

I suppose that could be true but I doubt that a firm like this would make a mistake like that. If they posted it(and it's true??) I am sure they had the proper permissions to post it. I for one still have my doubts and until Disney themselfs announce it I will take this thread with a grain of salt...smjj

I'm guessing about 300-450 units? I guess it depends on the allocation of 1BRs and dedicated 2BRs. How would the size of this fit in with the other DVCs?

Anyone else think the pool area looks alittle small?

 

[vonpluto]

Could it be just one of several designs Disney commisioned from several firms? It could be just concepitial and still years away..smjj

This was my first thought, one entry in a design competition.
But, for those of you really hankerin' for a CR DVC, I hope it's a go.

Nice concept, a little tall for that location, IMHO.

Assuming this is all real.

The great thing is that it looks like a medium to large scale DVC. I counted 17 stories, maybe 15 with rooms. Point is, that unlike, BCV or VWL, it may be possible (not likely) to get reservations at the 7 mo window.

This looks like a hotel that we can all enjoy. This thing looks big but it will still be much smaller than BWV, SSR and OKW. It will have at least as many rooms as the Tower part of the old Contemporary.

I think it will sell out very fast (<1 year) so another one may be not far behind.

We would definatley add on. Now to run out and buy a lottery ticket.

Here's hoping! If it is true, I'll purchase my first add-on!

My only concern is that it does look like some of the rooms will be a long walk from the elevators.

Sorry, I couldn't resist beign the first one to complain!

 

[hoopsrob]

I think the hallways look really long too

I did some quick calculations, based on the room-type allocations from BCV. It appears to me that there will either be 13 or 14 stories of rooms. The ground floor and top floor are for guest services (ground) and mechanical (top/roof - HVAC, fire prevention, etc). It looks like there may be a restaurant, ala the California Grill, on the main building / top. There will probably be a quick service around the pool and another food court on the ground floor (a guess, based on recent other Disney projects). I'm assuming there will be two sides (or views) for the resort - a pool / lake view and a CR/MK view. That is to say there will be rooms on either side of an interior hallway going down the middle of each floor. The "bulges" in the two anterior wings I'm guessing will be the dedicated two bedrooms.

Here's the room breakdown I'm guessing -

90 Dedicated Studios,
180 Lockoff Studios,
180 One bedroom Lockoffs,
48 Dedicated one bedrooms,
193 Dedicated two bedrooms,

Total of 691 rooms. Again, it's based on the BCV breakdown of units because the BCV is shoe-horned into such a tight space just like the CRV's appear to be. The BCV has 282 rooms on five floors. I don't know how many rooms are in the Contemporary tower and South Garden wing, but this structure could easily equal those number of rooms. It appears there will be a dedicated pool for the CRV's.

We will just have to see 1.) if it is built, and 2.) how close my guestimates are . . .

Knowing how incredibly tight-lipped Disney is, I can't imagine that an architecture firm of that size would make the mistake of "accidentally" posting the designs unless it had been approved by Disney & I assure you, I didn't make it up.....

I really do feel that there will be an announcement of some kind in the near future.......

Do you think it will be possible to reach into the fridge for a beer while sitting on the balcony?

Too late, someone beat you to the first complaint.

According to the CR resort map, there are 392 rooms in the tower and 354 in each wing.

great job finding it

Perhaps that will occur in October for the anniversary and in conjunction with the DVC Member Cruise?

I have a feeling that this is what it is. Proposals may have been solicited which would lend credence to the rumor.

(And this may not have won which is why it's on the website. Things they "show off" as examples of thier "creative process" )

 

[happyrebster]

Wow -- great detective work! I'm impressed! Seems very different from other DVCs also, which is nice! I am really enjoying the variety that they offer! I think this will be a great project. And, yes, agreed that this firm seems to do very high quality work. Cool.
