It's interesting that you mentioned theme parks, because the title reminded me of the illusion created on Disneyland's Main Street by varying the heights of the buildings. At the front of the park, the upper level is close to full size, but as they get closer to the castle the upper floor shrinks. As a result, the street looks longer as you enter the park full of excitement, and shorter as you leave it exhausted at the end of the day.
