With the beginning of the holiday season, some more walls came down in Toontown. Out from construction walls is the fountain in the center of the land, and it is working! The fountain opened with Toontown earlier this year, but there were some issues that caused it to be reworked. – https://www.micechat.com/372513-disneyland-update-exciting-openings-maintenance-concerns-holiday-crush-pin-rules/
