It's not a tower resort. Based on the pics Disney has released, it's 6-7 floors. WL is basically the same, floor wise, and I wouldn't call that a tower. WL is also right next door to the CR, but Disney has done a pretty good job at keeping the feel of WL. They can do the same with Fort Wilderness. Let's see what Disney does before crucifying Disney for something that hasn't been fully realized.
Also, I for one, am excited to see what they do with the horse barn. I'm guessing it'll still be open to the public, and I'm hoping they take a page from the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island. They built a big, beautiful barn that houses some of their carriage collection, some of the horses, and their harnesses. You can watch them bathe, groom, harness, and hitch the horses. It's fabulous to go through. I've been to the draft horse barn at WDW, and it was nice, but they could do something really amazing. Here's hoping.
