Is the ARB report available on line?

It actually goes several blocks east of here but not quite far enough. It doesn't seem impossible to get it to the corner of Ohio and Florida but certainly tough. The biggest obstacle appears to be the church. Ohio and Florida would put it right between Stetson and downtown.

I thought the next block east was the transition block. I think the east side of Eola Drive has a 130' max. height or something similar but the west side does not have the same limit.

Terrible news.

Is there any additional info on this? I still can't find any info on line. Thanks.

Is Phase 2 expected to start soon?

I didn't realize this was so far along but apparently it's pretty serious. Having this and CSP 2 under construction at the same time would be great. Thanks.

What will be the next project to start up? Feels like there's a bit of a lull in activity.

Is the proposal to use the 417 still active or would this new route near the OCCC replace it?

So, would this be the line Brightline uses to get to Tampa or would there be two routes leaving from the airport toward the west/southwest?

This is really awesome, except for the ten story parking garage, obviously.

Why can't the OBX train just back into LCS?

Connecting downtown to the airport is #1 on my wish list. Rail to the convention center would be #2.

I walk past this property at least twice a day and I'm very anxious for it to be redeveloped but this looks really bad. It's just a big parking garage with some units on top. The driveway locations look good but the building is terrible. They should at least move the tall part of the building to the west side of the site instead of the east side. The 520 project looks great along Eola Drive. Hopefully, the City has them put units on Eola Drive instead of the parking garage. I wonder if they even met with staff before coming up with this.

or tennessee.

They should split the Tampa-Orlando trains and the Orlando-Tampa trains in Auburndale with half of each train going to Miami and the other halves going to Orlando or Tampa. Northbound trains from Miami should also split and Auburndale with half going to Tampa and half going to Orlando. This would almost double service without increasing track usage much at all.

OMG, you can't be serious.

And it's the same team that totally hid the garage on the Lakehouse project. I'm still not really sure where the Lakehouse garage is. This project is awesome but the I-4 side is a real letdown.

Orlando has a huge north-south urban strip to work with. I think it's very comparable to Atlanta on a smaller scale. Also, Atlanta has tons of single family just east of Piedmont.

I totally agree. Also, the Brickell project has mostly underground parking even with a high water table. The water table at the Sentinel site is pretty low and would allow for at least one level of actual below ground parking, I believe.

From South Street too?

Is that due to a Beachline agreement issue? I was looking forward to taking it to Cocoa someday.

Beyond the obvious craziness of this, the fact that someone would call the co-chair of the House Blue Dog Coalition a "leftist" is pretty nutty.

This is going to be my favorite post, going forward.

If they can get that sweet road grid added through there and get a ton of units entitled, I'll be happy.
