I question it. Disney has been in the business long enough to know how to check on a potential tenants solvency. Not only would they have been checked for the ability to complete the build-out, they would have been evaluated for the their ability to remain solvent enough to survive for a time period operating at a loss while paying rent. If they were having solvency issues a few months into the build out Disney is a horrible commercial landlord- which I don’t think* they are considering how long they’ve turned a profit in this industry.
*Unless His Highness Cheapek dismissed all the red flags and decided he knew best. Which now that I type that out is entirely possible
ETA- LOL YUP. Went back and looked at the timing, this baby was negotiated under Cheapek. They could totally be financially screwed and Disney could be in a legal bind depending on what they signed waiting for this Cake shop to figure it out or go bust. Wow… (
@gatordoc I no longer question it)
