Overview
- The purchase of the former Orlando Sun resort site, reported at over $70 million and finalized on December 30, advances the long-planned district into active development.
- Plans call for about 670,000 square feet of retail, dining and live music anchored by three hotels totaling roughly 740 rooms, including a four-star property.
- Developers say they prefer a single-phase debut, though the delivery approach could adjust as work progresses.
- The property sits at the northeast corner of I-4 and U.S. 192 in Osceola County, about a mile east of Walt Disney World across from Celebration.
- Accesso held the parcel under contract for more than three years after the resort closed in 2012 before completing the acquisition.
