THE CITY CENTER AT O-TOWN WEST Where Office Sophistication Meets Magic
As one of the Orlando region’s hottest new communities, Unicorp National Developments Inc’s $1 billion O-Town West project is defining mixed-use. Located in one of the largest commercial centers featured in the development, the City Center at O-Town West offers a variety of restaurant, retail, and entertainment space, along with the new office building for Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corp.’s Headquarters.
In securing one of the region’s biggest office lease agreements ever with Marriott, Unicorp knew they would need a builder that would be able to handle a project of this size and scope while minimizing schedule delays. Because of FINFROCK’s fast and reliable build-out speed, Unicorp selected FINFROCK as the architect of record, engineer of record, precast concrete manufacturer & installer and general contractor for the project’s office building and attached parking garage.

The City Center at O-Town West office tower boasts an innovative and modern design that integrates seamlessly with the surrounding area. The sleek design of the columns and beams leaves plenty of opportunities for the exterior glass design, including the encompassing floor-to-ceiling windows on the northern part of the structure. The office tower also includes double-height entry space on each level, leaving room for some of the best views in the Orlando area overlooking sections of the I-Drive corridor and downtown. Due to program and code requirements, FINFROCK’s architecture, engineering, and construction teams collaborated to create a new, deeper structural product that would meet the design criteria for heavier loads and vibrations –FINFROCK’s first 36” deep DualDeck.® This innovative pre-stressed, precast concrete piece is unique to FINFROCK design and allows for column-free spans throughout the building, allowing for future space flexibility.
With the core and shell of the nine-story office tower and parking garage complete, the interior build-out remains with an anticipated completion date of Fall 2023. When finished, the tower will provide 350,000 SF of Class-A office space, making it an ideal fit for over 1600 daily employees. Parking is supported by an attached eight-story parking garage and attached central energy plant, housing 2,021 stalls across 609,611 SF, also designed and constructed by FINFROCK.
