Approximately $6 billion in investment is coming to Anaheim around the city’s world-famous theme parks and in and around Angel Stadium of Anaheim.

John Woodhead, Director of Community & Economic Development for the city of Anaheim spoke to ABC7 Eyewitness News, Friday Sept 30. The investment includes the addition of Stars Wars-themed land at Disneyland Park, four new luxury hotels and other lodging, expansion of the Anaheim Convention Center, plus new homes, shopping, dining, offices and hotels at the Platinum Triangle around Angel Stadium.

This level of investment in Anaheim is among the largest in the U.S. and reflects ongoing planning by the city of Anaheim to enhance its visitor industry on a global scale and to create an urban village built around sports, entertainment, jobs and public transit.
