Field Note
“When I visited Celebration, Florida in 1997, I
felt like I was walking onto a movie or televi-
sion set. The architecture in the Walt Disney-
designed new urbanist development looked
like the quintessential New England town.
Each house has a porch, but on the day I was
there, the porches sat empty—waiting to wel-
come the arrival of their owners at the end of
the work day. We walked through town, past
the 50s-style movie marquee, and ate lunch
at a 50s-style diner. At that point, Celebration
was still growing. Across the street from the
'Bank of Celebration' stood a sign marking the
future home of the 'Church in Celebration.'”
