Central Florida Project Spotlight: Horizon West & Flamingo Crossings

According to the Orlando Sentinel, Horizon West can be considered one of the fastest-growing master-planned communities nationwide. Comprising over 10,000 acres in Orange County, Florida, it is home to five designated mixed-use villages, including the Village of Bridgewater, Lakeside Village, Hickory Nut, Ovation Village and Seidel Village, all surrounded by greenbelts. Over the past 25 years, Allen & Company, a Fremont-Wright Company, has platted nearly 90% of the entire project, encompassing +/-30,000 lots. Flamingo Crossings is a new, mixed-use development at Horizon West, positioned at the western gateway to Walt Disney World Resort. It serves as Horizon West’s Town Center, consisting of half a million square feet of retail, 5,000 hotel and timeshare units, and over 1,000 apartment units. The 450-acre development is home to branded lodging, retail, and dining in a pedestrian-friendly environment. Hamilton Engineering & Surveying, a Fremont-Wright Company, provided construction surveying services for the Walgreens, Hampton Inn & Suites and a multi-family residential complex within the development. This included construction staking for earthwork, utilities, roadway and parking areas, sidewalks, and buildings. Guests to the Flamingo Crossings development will discover a compelling mix of over 40 familiar brands and unique-to-market offerings in a 200,000-square-foot, open-air, mixed-use retail hub. These projects serve a dynamic and growing Central Florida area focused at the edge of Orlando’s Western Beltway.
