Walt Disney by the Decade Challenge: The 1960s (7/7)

In the 1960s, Walt Disney imagined a sort of utopian community for people to live in, one that drastically differed from the dirty, crime-ridden cities that were sprinkled across the U.S. He called this community EPCOT (Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow). In the picture above, Walt Disney points to his initial plans for EPCOT in a short film that promoted his new idea. 

Walt Disney died on December 15, 1966, only a couple of months after this photograph was taken.
