Une seule voix, pendant toute l’heure qui va suivre et quelle voix ! Une des plus marquantes et mémorables de ces quelque quarante dernières années et des poussières, celle de Morrissey.

The landscape of Magic Kingdom is currently undergoing its most radical transformation since the park opened in 1971. As the calendar turns to January 2026, the serene waters of the Rivers of America and the rustic charm of Tom Sawyer Island are officially a thing of the past. In their place, a massive construction project is rising: the highly anticipated Cars-themed expansion, anchored by the towering Piston Peak.

Walt Disney Imagineering (WDI) officially filed a major permit, confirming that construction is moving beyond the central island and creeping into the historic shores of Liberty Square. Here is what the latest permit reveals about the progress of Piston Peak and how the “heart of the park” is being permanently reshaped. The Mike Fink Permit: A Strategic Expansion Point According to recent reports from WDWNT, Disney has filed a permit for the site formerly known as the Mike Fink Keel Boats landing. Located on the edge of Liberty Square, this landing has been largely dormant for decades, serving as a nostalgic reminder of the park’s early years.

While the description is technically broad, the location is significant. This landing sits at the threshold where the colonial themes of Liberty Square meet the rugged, adventurous spirit of the new Frontierland expansion. What This Means for Construction: Infrastructure Prep: The permit likely covers the foundation work needed to bridge the gap between Liberty Square’s existing walkways and the new terrain of Piston Peak. Staging and Access: As the Rivers of America are filled in, this landing provides a critical access point for heavy machinery and materials needed to build the massive rockwork of the Cars area. A New Transition Zone: Fans speculate that this area could be reimagined as a scenic overlook or a transitionary “national park” style trailhead that eases guests from the 1700s into the off-road world of Radiator Springs. Piston Peak Starts to Take Shape As reported by Inside the Magic, the visual “disappearance” of the Rivers of America is no longer a rumor—it is a reality. The water has been drained, and the iconic Liberty Belle Riverboat has seen its final voyage. In its place, the massive “Piston Peak” mountain is beginning to take physical shape.

The expansion is set to feature two new attractions: A High-Octane Off-Road Adventure: A thrill ride that will take guests through the rugged mountain terrain, featuring climbs, descents, and the signature “Cars” humor. A Family-Friendly Attraction: A second experience designed for younger racers, ensuring the land appeals to the Magic Kingdom’s primary demographic. The “Piston Peak” rockwork is expected to rival Big Thunder Mountain in scale, forever changing the park’s skyline. Guests currently walking through Frontierland can see the early skeletal structures of what will eventually become a majestic, red-rock mountain range. The Controversy: Heritage vs. Innovation The decision to replace Tom Sawyer Island and the Rivers of America remains one of the most debated topics in the Disney community. For purists, the loss of these “passive” spaces—designed by Walt Disney himself to provide a kinetic, relaxing atmosphere—is a blow to the park’s original DNA.

Capacity: The Cars attractions will handle thousands more guests per hour than the raft-to-island experience ever did. Relevance: While Tom Sawyer Island was a relic of mid-century literature, Cars remains a powerhouse brand for Disney, driving merchandise and high guest satisfaction scores. Navigating…
