The Emporium is a shop located on [[Main Street USA]] in the [[Magic Kingdom]]
==History==
The Emporium originally opened on the corner of Town Square and West Street on [[Main Street USA ]] with the rest of the Magic Kingdom on October 1, 1971 <ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/emporium/ </ref>. Based on the Disneyland shop of the same name, the Emporium originally sold a wide variety of merchandise including: Mementosmementos, character merchandise, personal/decorative gifts, books, records, film and sundries. Themed as a turn of the century high end store, with its Victorian ornamentation and small town appeal, the Emporium became the flagship store of the Magic Kingdom.
The first major expansion to the Emporium came in 1984, when it was expanded into the location that had housed The Greenhouse shop, which was found next door <ref> http://www.omniluxe.net/wyw/msusa.htm </ref>. Two years later, in 1986, the Emporium incorporated what had formally been the New Century Clock Shop <ref> http://www.omniluxe.net/wyw/mkindex.htm </ref>.
