JFW657 4537 Report post Posted November 27, 2013 Pathetic. And to think that this project originally started out a few years ago as 30+ story twin towers as I recall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve_o 149 Report post Posted November 27, 2013 that is not correct. the 777 building (sevens) is what you are thinking of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jernigan 2647 Report post Posted November 27, 2013 I think that he's referring to 801 N Orange (across street). There's a thread on that project 1-2 pages back that goes back to 2005 when the plans and it in the 30s. That project ended up 7-8 I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Universe_Explorer 158 Report post Posted November 27, 2013 4-story 15000 sq ft office building with surface parking. **Breaking ground by January**http://www.bizjournals.com/orlando/blog/latin/2013/11/exclusive-work-starts-by-january-on.html I don't care much for the surface lot, but it's office space - and increased density in an area that is close to the tipping point. If The Sevens gets built (I'll believe it when I see it) and the hotel gets put in across the street, the Uptown/Ivanhoe area will have a very similar make up to the Eola South/Thornton Park area - a swath of apartment dwellers near an old neighborhood with a lake/park and local shopping/nightlife district. With the improved visibility that comes with being on Orange and an audience that is walled off on two sides by Colonial and I4, I think first floor dining and retail will thrive here compared to the rotating problems on S Eola drive. Plus there's still a lot of undeveloped property on the other side of Magnolia and some cool old buildings that could be re-purposed (OUC bldg, WDBO bldg). It's easy to forget how close this area is to the two growing hip/artsy sections of town (Mills 50, Ivanhoe/Virginia) as well. I'm bullish on Uptown being an option for those that feel they have outgrown the CBD apartments and surrounding 21-25yo-centric nightlife, but still want urban living Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JFW657 4537 Report post Posted November 28, 2013 Yeah, I thought I might be a little off on the address. It's still a kinda sad little building though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John Hargrove 664 Report post Posted April 9, 2014 It's adorable. How long is that going to take to build? 2 or 3 hours? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aleonrivera 56 Report post Posted April 9, 2014 I would definitely welcome more of these small buildings throughout the neighborhoods. They can take the forms of residential, office, retail, theatre/educational space, a boutique hotel, etc. It reminds me of some you would see throughout Chicago's North Side or even South Beach.

jrs2 2380 Report post Posted April 9, 2014 So, Ustler has two projects currently U/C- this and the Residence Inn at Orange & 50. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alex 687 Report post Posted April 9, 2014 Nice! The parking situation is a little suburban and the design is...well, Baker Barrios. But overall I think it's a great addition to the area. Can't wait for Sevens to bring more people to the area, and for the Lymmo expansion to bridge the gap between uptown and downtown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
