Disney California Adventure's reimagined Pacific Wharf area - now named San Fransokyo Square - reflects the hybrid design sensibilities of Disney's Big Hero 6 film, combining San Francisco and Tokyo.
The Imagineering story is that "as the tech industry began to emerge and the local fishing trade fell on hard times, entrepreneurs came together to reinvent the seaside canneries into a vibrant, multicultural district of neighborhood restaurants and small businesses where you’ll be able to eat and shop." Or Disney just wanted to shove more IP into DCA.
Curiously the logo style, which uses the initials "SFS" to represent the land, somewhat mimics the design of the Smoke Tree Ranch, a private community in Palm Springs of which Walt Disney was a member, often wearing the "STR" initials as a tie tack on his Walt Disney’s World of Color television program.
