Bob Iger Receives Main Street Window at Disneyland, Josh D'Amaro Honors Legacy
Bob Iger has been inducted as a Disney Legend and given a Main Street U.S.A. window at Disneyland, reading "New Century Builders – Robert A. Iger, Chief Architect.

Former Disney CEO Bob Iger has received a window on Main Street U.S.A. at Disneyland, marking his induction as a Disney Legend.

Disney CEO Josh D'Amaro celebrated the honor in an Instagram post, joining Iger at Disneyland for the dedication.

"For generations, Disney has been a source of joy, wonder, and unforgettable memories. Robert Iger's leadership has helped inspire so many of those experiences," D'Amaro wrote. "As we celebrate his induction as a Disney Legend and the dedication of his Main Street window at Disneyland, we're honored to recognize a legacy that will continue to inspire for years to come."

Iger's window appears above the Books and Gifts shops on Main Street U.S.A., reading "New Century Builders" with the name "Robert A. Iger, Chief Architect" beneath it.

Main Street windows are among Disneyland's most meaningful traditions, honoring individuals who made significant contributions to the park and the Walt Disney Company. The windows list names and titles as though the individuals operated businesses on the street during Disneyland's early years.

Iger led Disney for nearly two decades across two separate terms as CEO, first from 2005 to 2020, then returning in 2022 before stepping down as D'Amaro officially became CEO on March 18.

During his tenure, Iger oversaw major acquisitions including Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, and 21st Century Fox. He expanded Disney's global theme park footprint and guided the company through the launch of Disney+.

Iger currently serves as Senior Advisor and remains on the Disney Board until his retirement on December 31, 2026.

I guess the Disney Legend award wasn't enough of a pat on the back.

That comes from getting paid A LOT of money for doing virtually nothing. Having enough money for multiple lifetimes like a vampire makes for a very low stress environment. Hmmm… looking as good as he does, having enough money for multiple lifetimes like a vampire…….. Maybe HE IS a vampire!😉

Regardless of how people feel about some things he pushed through, he changed a lot and acquired a lot of assets for the company. Let him have his window.

Well we know Steve was offered one if he would play along with “I’m retiring” so yes… there are other factors for sure.

Possible, I'm just giving a potential reason why specific people might not have received them yet even though fans think they should. I just used those two as examples. There are other factors as well I'm sure that we're not thinking of. I'm just saying that its possible those reasons are not just Disney intentionally snubbing them.

Jim has dropped enough hints. I’m sure Eisner would appreciate it as well. He was never shy with speaking in public.

I often wonder if in situations like Cummings and Eisner, if they have just turned down the award to not be in the spotlight as it were. Because as I understand it the person has to actually agree to accept the award, give speeches, etc. So while externally it may looks like Disney is snubbing specific people, but its actually them who are turning down accepting the award. I obviously don't know this as a fact, but it could be a reason why certain long time contributors haven't gotten Disney Legend or other honors by Disney like a Window.

It’s not meaningless, it’s just not full proof. 95% of the recipients are generally very deserving, but there is a propensity where one or two a year are clearly being done for marketing purposes. Then of course the 1000s whom simply aren’t recognizable enough as the thing has increasingly been event-ized. Ie Groff. I would say Kristen and Idina, but they show up. That said - I’m rather surprised Jim hasn’t received it. He was at the convention. I’d anticipate he will one day.

I’d give you a trophy for that if I could :) haha

I thought Iger and Chapek already shared a window on Main St, ? ;)

His window should have been “Director of the Weather Bureau” Dang it Bob, it’s too hot!

Getting your name on a window used to mean something. Now they’re giving them out to anybody.
