Fantasyland: Hidden in the corner of Fantasyland (along the Frontierland border) sits the building that once housed the machinery and loading area for Skyway to Tomorrowland. The attraction used to carry 4 passengers in gondolas up to 60 feet in the air. The trip took park goers from Fantasyland through the Matternhorn and on to Tomorrowland (and back again after reboarding).
Originally opened on June 23, 1956, the Disneyland Skyway was permanently closed on November 9, 1994. A variety of factors were involved in the Skyway's closing; damaged supports, costly repairs, inefficiency (so many Cast Members were needed to operate the ride at both ends), waning popularity and difficulties making the ride ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant.
