From the moment Tavistock Development Co. announced plans for Lake Nona West — its new 405,100-square-foot lifestyle center to be built just west of Lake Nona Town Center — the project became one of the most anticipated in the region.

It has piqued the interest of residents of Lake Nona and its surrounding areas, eager for more shopping and dining options, as well as the interest of the region’s real estate players.

Longtime land broker Daryl Carter — who owns and is in the process of selling land just south of the Lake Nona West project, along Boggy Creek Road — told Orlando Business Journal Tavistock’s newest project has important implications for his own, saying “activity begets activity.”

“Having that nearby to our property, where an apartment developer is looking at putting an $80 million project into the ground — that’s good for us.”

LeCesse Development Corporation is a step closer to delivering more apartment units to the Orlando market after securing land a short walk away from the Meadow Woods SunRail station.

The Altamonte Springs-based developer paid $6.5 million on Sept. 28 for roughly 10 acres of property near the intersection of S. Orange Avenue and W. Wetherbee Road, according to Orange County deed records.

LeCesse plans to begin construction on a 280-unit Class A multifamily community by the fourth quarter of 2024, representatives told GrowthSpotter.

“With the site situated directly across the street from the Meadow Woods SunRail station, we saw an opportunity to provide a transit-oriented development,” Matthew Gourlay, senior development manager at LeCesse, said in a statement. “We are excited that our residents will have the convenience of the SunRail service at their doorstep.”
