Contributing photographer Jason of disneygeek.com sends us these photos of the window dedication ceremony at Disneyland on April 9, 2013 honoring Harrison (Buzz) Price with a window on Main Street USA. One of his key contributions to the Walt Disney Company was doing the site survey and identifying the location where Disneyland sits today.
The ceremony started just past 9:00am as the park opened. The west (left) tunnel was blocked off for the ceremony. The window is located on the left side of City Hall.
The new window is covered and ready to be unveiled.
Jack Lindquist (former president of Disneyland, left), Marty Sklar (former Imagineer, sun glasses), and Tony Baxter (former Imagineer, back to us) were on hand for the dedication.
