Thornton Park

Thornton Park Central

Orlando, Florida
Thornton Park Central was the first successful urban mixed-use development in Orlando. it was the starting point for most new urban development from that time on. The concept springs from the urban streetscape experience and upward, bringing a lively mix of retail, entertainment, residential, office and parking elements together into a cohesive, dynamic urban village core. The multi-use project includes 20,000-square-feet of retail space featuring sidewalk cafes with seating along the project’s two main streets. Four levels of residential loft-style condominiums are located above the street level shops. In addition to these elements, the project’s north wing is home to 40,000-square-feet of commercial office space on five floors that feature scenic views to the City’s historic Lake Eola and the downtown skyline. In the spirit of “new urbanism”, the project functions as a transitional area from the downtown core and adjacent historic neighborhoods to surrounding residential neighborhoods.
