Main Street USA bldgs

Does anyone know what is in the second and third floor of the buildings on Main St USA? Thought maybe they were used for storage or offices?

I think mostly storage. The second and third floors are not as big as they appear. The third floors are even smaller than the second floors.

Yeah... isn't it an optical illusion? Like the scale of it looks bigger but is actually smaller? I thought I heard that on one of those Disney Theme Park video's.

Yes that is correct Mase. Thats what we were told in the key to the Kingdom tour. The buildings actually get smaller as you get closer to the castle.

Yes it and while walking up Main Street after entering the park you are walking up a slight grade. Again making the castle look bigger.

Also if you look at the bricks on the castle, they get smaller as they go up, also making it look bigger that it really is!
