  1. I actually like her idea.  The target group are older ppl, something the area is saturated with. The city strives to attract other industries and perhaps it is not a bad idea to work with what we already have, which are older ppl.  According to the the statistics the USA is only getting older and not younger. These potential clients need a lot of services. Why not set up a place in a one stop shop environment. A place where u can set up assisted living, nursing home, hospice, medical services, etc. So many services that a very large building will be needed, by the way isn’t Orlando begging for a true skyscraper? I want her to succeed but obviously I’m ignorant to the politics and marketing needed to launch such a complicated endeavor.

  2. A Cocoa beach stop makes sense, in part because of KSC but more then anything for Port Canaveral. The potential tourists from the cruise  ships can now make day trips  to Disney, Universal studios, the attractions on international drive, etc... Brightline would provide the transportation in a seamless way. Brightline can potentially make many more deals with other players.

  3. For all parties involved Disney Springs seems like the most logical place.  Disney controls visitors at one centralized location and transit can officially claim a station at Disney.

  4. Here’s a crazy idea!! If anyone has noticed, Morse ave starts or ends at the Winter Park scenic boat  tour and ends at Lake Killarney. Along the way it divides Central Park, continues on to Martin Luther Park and now potentially end at another park at Lake Killarney. Wouldn’t it be something if there was a París like promenade ( elevated park ) connecting one end to another. Kind of like NYCs high point and Phillys Railpark. The elevated park would add greenery and gardens from one end to the other end.

  5. That’s why I said it’s only a matter of time. Once a  funding source is identified and the connection to MCO comes to fruition, residents will demand the OBX line.

    That OUC line looks like it becomes obsolete in 2027.   Seems like if OUC wanted to unload it on Sunrail for an airport or Lake Nona/Surburban Land Development spur, they suddenly can.

    Perhaps it can be used for light rail. Obviously they’ll have to tear up the tracks.

    This does make a lot more sense! I wonder if Disney will actually allow Sunrail on their property.... I guess COVID might make them a bit desperate! Now's the time to get the deal done!

    Some of us actually suggested this very idea  earlier in this forum. Nice to see that politicians are actually doing their job. Makes  to much sense to just allow Sunrail to use the Brightline Corridor  and allow Brightline to use the Sunrail corridor. What remains unclear to me is the light rail idea.

  8. I think they should combine the Orlando Highway authority into Sunrail and Lynx as well. I’m not sure about the politics behind it but combining all 3 agencies into one comprehensive agency can open up more possibilities. 

  9. It doesn’t blend, but it could be the start for things to come. Remember the city is working on buying the post office, and Rollins bought the adjacent parking lot next to the library. There are also rumors that city hall is relocating. We shall see.
