    If you look closely, the sign says Garden Plaza East, the West Firework Viewing.. If this is on the west side of the plaza, then the sign should read Garden Plaza West, West Fireworks Viewing...

    Look right under the light on the green frame...It says "Plaza Garden East" in white lettering. That should be "Plaza Garden West." The fireworks viewing area sign is correct.

    Unless, of course, there are actually two fireworks viewing areas on the East side of the Plaza Garden. In that case, there could be a "East Fireworks Viewing Area" and a "West Fireworks viewing area" - both in "Plaza Garden East".

    Or, this area is only for viewing the "West Fireworks" and you're not allowed to view the main fireworks show which would be to the North.

    Oh my gosh I totally missed the words on the actual lamp post! I was looking at the giant sign haha. Yeah weird. Did someone mismatch the signs with the wrong post?

    The pictures Mel posted were in fact, as has been noted here earlier, from Garden Plaza West, as that section opened first... Garden Plaza East opened today...

    That sign is still mind boggling cause Garden Plaza East, as the sign says, was not open yet, and obviously, that is not Garden Plaza East...

    But, maybe in person things make ore sense? Or only in Disney's world can West mean East... Or is that a Florida thing? LOL...

    I think having both an East and West coast makes any type of direction weird in Florida. The part of FL I live in is called West Central Florida. In most other places it would be pretty hard to be West and Central at the same time.

    I like that they didn't leave it all concrete, although the internet is buzzing about how gross the astroturf is - looks like a tent city, people will picnic, spill, leave garbage, blah, blah, blah. They do all those things on concrete, what is the difference? Disney will clean it, I'm pretty sure they have that on their list of things to do. I swear some people will complain about anything. I think it's pretty, like a park should be. More concrete would have been boring and hot.

    Looks like the Plaza Garden West sign is correct.

    I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way.
