Is this the end of Disney hotel expansions off property?

At one time Disney had plans to create standalone hotels, retail centers and parks throughout the country but they no longer have anything on the drawing board, according to an article in the Orlando Sentinel.

Last week the Walt Disney Company scuttled plans to build a 500-room, hotel at the National Harbor.

This decision comes after the Aug. 29 opening of the Aulani resort in Hawaii. The article goes on to discuss the issues involved in creating these hotels and that Disney is still considering building away from the Walt Disney Resort in Florida and Disneyland Resort in California.
