Modera Central | 23-Story Residential

I just thought this was a cool shot.

A couple photos from the adjacent Library Garage. It looks like the bottom couple of floors of apartments will have garage views. Also, note the wonky columns that are - so far - still keeping the building upright.

Those crooked spandrel panels look so weird to me.  Interesting quirk of this building.

Seems like they would've figured out a way to hide them. 

Maybe box them in with some type of covered framing to make them appear vertical.

I kinda like it. 

I'm kinda weird too, lol.

Big mistake that their parking pedestal wasn't at least 2 stories taller to get the height over the adjacent garage.  Big mistake. that can be a major security risk.

Seriously.

I think the thought of a 60' - 70' drop is a pretty effective deterrent.

Seems like they'd put some kind of heavy duty net about 10' down from the top.

One of the only two places I would actually pay to live in...Modera and 777 N Orange....properly made/designed with concrete/steel versus yellow pine and plywood.  Our latest crown jewel in College park, like many others might have nice external finishes...but they are matchstick design.  In all fairness, Creative Village appears to be high quality also.

The Yard at Ivanhoe is all concrete (so far), and so was the Artisan 420.  I assume the 520 will also be.

Modera has taken down the construction wall this past week, put up the mesh, paved, and landscaped along Central & Rosalind.

Any indication that the retail / restaurant spaces are being built out?

Any wagers on how long Center State will be the anchor at 20 N Orange?

Anybody know why developers all over town have started using the cheaper Sylvester Date Palms instead of the Medjool Date palms that used to be planted all over. There is a huge difference in quality of tree. Medjools are so much nicer.  Someone started this cheap trend and now its taking over like a plague.

[AmIReal]

Because the Medjool makes a mess when the dates drop. I don't think the Sylvester has the dates, do they?

Darn, I never get a date when I'm downtown but I keep trying.

I'll take the cheaper ones. They aren't as nasty.

Although I'd like more non palm trees planted .

The both drop dates. The medjool have higher quality fronds. Silvery green color. Higher quality diamonds on the trunk and are slower growing therefore requiring less maintenance. Medjools are at the mall at Millenia , in front of Amway,etc...and tend to be in high-end projects  

The sylverster has a faster growth rate. they tend to always need trimming. They always look overgrown and out of control. The fronds are low quality and look like needles.  The trunks are not as nice of diamond shaped. its a much cheaper tree for a reason.

Is it me, or does the avg household income for each neighborhood seem a little off?

This is a fascinating snippet of info. Seems about right to me - winter park includes lakemont to Semoran, east of Semoran, and west of Park - that brings down their average quite a bit.  College Park, Baldwin and Thornton don’t have any areas lowering their averages.  They do all seem a bit higher that I might expect though. 

[codypet]

Delaney Park has Lake Como dragging its average down too.
