A long-stalled Four Seasons hotel to be built at Walt Disney World won't open for at least another three years.
Toronto-based Four Seasons Hotel and Resorts said this week that the projected opening date for the 445-room luxury hotel has been pushed back until early 2014. The project was first announced in 2007 and was initially scheduled to open a year ago.
The Four Seasons project would bring one of the world's elite hotel brands to Disney World, which has been attempting to cultivate more offerings for ultra-affluent travelers. The hotel is to be a centerpiece of Disney's "Golden Oak" residential subdivision, a community of multimillion-dollar homes that is being built near the Magic Kingdom in the northeast corner of the giant resort.

I didn't realize this hotel would be the "centerpiece of Disney's Golden Oak residential community". Would we have to invite them to our WDWFG block party??
