CRESCENT PARK IN LAUREATE PARK

Welcome to Lake Nona Orlando’s fastest growing community with more than 14,000 residents, Lake Nona is a 17-square-mile, master-planned community that’s home to a wide variety of unique, desirable and walkable neighborhoods. From apartment homes — including the Orlando market’s first micro-units — to colorful townhomes, modern active-adult condos, sustainable single-family homes and sprawling estate homes, there’s truly something for everyone.

Lake Nona is designed to foster wellbeing and promote activity, sustainability, social connection and learning. Recognized by the Global Wellness Institute as “the most sophisticated example in the world of what master-planning for wellness can accomplish,” Lake Nona was built from the ground up with a commitment to the health of residents.

It’s an intergenerational, family-friendly ecosystem with 40 percent green space, parks on every corner, pools in every neighborhood, dedicated cycling lanes and more than 44 miles of trails.

This neo-urban environment inspires institutions, people and businesses to thrive. To that end, Lake Nona is education-obsessed. A collaborative learning environment is designed to give students the ability to engage in real-time interactions with researchers, doctors, professors and businesses within the community.

Top-rated schools, from early childhood to the graduate level, serve more than 14,000 students. In addition, Lake Nona was the first gigabit community in Florida, offering residents lightning-fast internet speeds up to 200 times faster than the U.S. average.

Each year, the Lake Nona Impact Forum convenes more than 250 thought leaders from business, academia, government and industry sectors who are driving creative, innovative health and wellness solutions, which move the needle on health care expenditures nationally and globally.

The gathering is committed to unlocking innovation to create sustainable health communities and advance quality of life by exploring the intersections of wellness, sustainable living and education.

Home to Medical City, diverse workspaces, recreational facilities and a thriving Town Center, Lake Nona is an inspired vision brought to life

by Tavistock Development Co., an award-winning, diversified real-estate firm owned by Tavistock Group. To learn more about Lake Nona, visit lakenona.com.

s transplants from Texas, the McNeil family’s search for a community-minded neighborhood lead them in 2007 to Tavistock Development Company’s Lake Nona, where they settled in the NorthLake Park neighborhood with their young daughter.

“NorthLake Park was fantastic family neighborhood,” says Dan McNeil, who works as an air traffic controller at Orlando National International Airport. “The friends we made are still very good friends 12 years later.”

The McNeils, with a school-aged daughter who attended Northlake Park Elementary School, quickly became immersed in this 17-square mile, master-planned community — an internationally acclaimed neo-urbanist development. Now they’re Lake Nona’s biggest boosters. But they aren’t alone.

Artist Jefre Manuel, who frequently travels internationally, chose a home in Lake Nona for its proximity to the airport and the community’s pedestrian-friendly layout.

“Lake Nona’s neighborhoods are designed as walkable communities with trails, parks and open spaces,” says Manuel.

“This allows residents to get to know each other and creates a sense of security and safety with many eyes on the streets.”

Manuel has created several public art pieces for the community, including The Beacon and Code Wall and a large mirrored dog sculpture. “Integrating art and cultural programs in the planning of cities is what gives them heart, soul and spirit of place,” notes Manuel.

He lauds Lake Nona’s development guidelines for integrating public art by requiring commercial tenants to feature and integrate art within their specific commercial spaces. “It provides different scales of both local and international art.”

Today more than 15,000 residents call Lake Nona home, with approximately 500 new families moving in annually. Strategically located in southeast Orange County close to the airport and major transportation arteries, Lake Nona is built on a philosophy of neo-urbanism and wellness.

“The well-being of our residents, employees, and visitors is a priority that’s illustrated in everything we do, from hosting a longitudinal health study to the way we design neighborhoods,” notes Juan Santos, vice president of brand experience for Tavistock Development.

The McNeils moved from NorthLake Park, but not very far. They now live in Lake Nona Golf & Country Club, the first residential community in Lake Nona, founded more than 30 years ago.

“The best thing about the community is the people,” says McNeil. They come from all over the world with different backgrounds and everybody gets along great. I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.”

Lake Nona is known for its Tom Fazio-designed championship golf course, which hosts PGA and LPGA tournaments. It wraps around Lake Nona, a natural lake from which the entire development gets its name.

“With all of the amenities within the club, you really don’t have to leave the neighborhood,” says McNeil. “We have a well-equipped gym with several class options, tennis courts, a MC6 S P E C I A L R E P O R T : L A K E N O N A

Saying that a community is a great place to “live, work and play” has almost become a cliché these days. But at Lake Nona, it’s not a slogan. It’s an essential aspect of what the community’s all about.

Lake Nona Golf & Country Club has plans to expand the awardwinning community to the southern shores of Lake Nona, adjacent to the new Lake Nona Resort opening in 2020 and United States Tennis Association (USTA) National Campus.

Plans call for the addition of luxury condominiums, custom homes and a Lake Club on the beaches of the crystal lagoon MC8 S P E C I A L R E P O R T : L A K E N O N A

at Lake Nona Resort. Members will enjoy not only these new amenities, but all the benefits club members currently enjoy.

“I think we’re just seeing the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the growth and what the area will have to offer,” says McNeil.

“You’ll not need to leave Lake Nona for anything you need or want to do. The plans are not just to build and grow Lake Nona — but to build and grow it right.”

The Global Wellness Institute calls Lake Nona “one of America’s healthiest communities and the most sophisticated example in the world of what master planning for wellness can accomplish.”

An Epicenter for Business

Laureate Park, with streets named for Nobel Laureates, is the largest and fastest-growing community in Lake Nona. Buyers are attracted by a wide variety of housing options, with prices starting in the high $200s. Amenities include lakes, trails, pocket parks and a community garden as well as a bustling Village Center.

The community thrives in a synergistic relationship with Lake Nona’s Medical City and a growing cluster of biotech, pharmaceutical, research, medical and wellness companies.

The vision for this health-, education- and technology-oriented community belongs to Tavistock Development Company, a diversified real-estate firm owned by Tavistock Group. Developers founded Lake Nona in 1996 with the purchase of Lake Nona Golf & Country Club, pioneering neo-urbanism with a mix of urban and suburban amenities including a robust public arts program.

Residents live in walkable neighborhoods with backyards and front porches and the convenience of nearby shopping, dining and entertaining options in the Lake Nona Town Center — all soon to be serviced by autonomous shuttles, the first in Central Florida.

Lake Nona offers 15 distinct neighborhoods from townhomes, active-adult condos, sustainable single-family homes, custom estates and multifamily housing.

As one of nine Cisco Smart + Connected Cities in the world and the first gigabit community in Florida, every resident is connected with internet service at speeds 200 times faster than the average household.

Here’s a deep dive into this 11,000-acre community:

Lake Nona is fast becoming an epicenter for biotech, healthcare and life sciences companies seeking the infrastructure to innovate and collaborate.

Lake Nona Health & Life Sciences campus in Medical City offers more than 2.6 million square feet of clinical, institutional and laboratory buildings plus the expertise and resources of three hospitals, two state university campuses and a Valencia College campus.

GuideWell Innovation Center provides office and lab space for healthcare and life-science companies seeking high-tech facilities and high-speed data processing systems. The state-of-the-art, 92,000-square-foot facility houses a next-generation workspace known as CoRE (Collaborative Resource Ecosystem) designed to foster health science collaborations among business leaders, global academic communities and entrepreneurs.

One of its newest tenants is the med-tech company Invel, which makes healing clothes of mineral-infused fabric. Companies working at GuideWell can test their products at WHIT (Wellness Home Based on Innovation and Technology), which serves as a working lab and simulates a home environment.

Located in the Lake Nona neighborhood of Laureate Park, WHIT is a project of the Lake Nona Institute along with its collaborative partners. WHIT demonstrates how the home can function as a personal-care center capable of monitoring the health of residents and connecting them with health professionals in real time.

Global accounting firm KPMG is one of Lake Nona’s newest business residents. The KPMG Learning, Development and Innovation Campus opens in 2020 on 55 acres as the accounting firm’s national training headquarters.

The $450 million facility spans 800,000 square feet, and plans are that it will host 800 people a week for training.

Located next to Lake Nona Resort, the KPMG training center includes its own hotel accommodations with 800 rooms.

Lake Nona is also home to several corporate headquarters, including VOXX International Corporation, BBA Aviation, Signature Flight Support and an Amazon Fulfillment Center.

WHIT is an acronym for Wellness Home Built on Innovation and Technology.

he heart of Lake Nona is Medical City, an evolving cluster of hospitals, clinics, medical schools and wellness companies spanning 650 acres.

The University of Central Florida (UCF) Health Sciences Campus anchors Medical City and includes the College of Medicine and the Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences. Opened in 2010, the College of Medicine has one of the fastest growing residency programs in the U.S. with plans to open a teaching hospital next door in early 2021.

UCF is partnering with Hospital Corporation of America (HCA) to build the UCF Lake Nona Medical Center, a 100-bed hospital with medical residencies and research programs. The $175 million facility will create 600 additional slots for residency and fellowship programs, including the first ever psychiatry residency program for Central Florida.

As of July 2018, the UCF-HCA consortium had 360 students in medical residents and fellowships. In addition, the medical school added 22 new programs during the last four years.

UCF also has created an Academic Health Sciences Center at Lake Nona that brings many health-related disciplines to one campus so students in nursing, medicine, social work, athletic training and physical therapy can train together on better ways to care for patients.

The UCF Lake Nona Cancer Center recently moved into the 175,000-square-foot facility vacated by the Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute, the first tenant in Medical City.

The cancer research and treatment center combines clinical research with leading-edge cancer treatments. Patients needing hospitalization will have the convenience of receiving care at UCF’s medical center just steps away.

Other components of Medical City include the University of Florida (UF) Academic Research Center, which opened in 2012 and houses the UF College of Pharmacy’s doctoral program. More

than 450 UF faculty members, students, administrators and staff work in the center within the colleges of medicine and pharmacy, carrying out research in drug discovery and development.

The UF College of Pharmacy offers a doctorate in pharmacy, a four-year advanced degree program that enrolls approximately 340 students. Other programs include the Center for Quality Medication Management, focused on medication therapy management, and the UF Institute of Therapeutic Innovation, which develops drug therapies for diseases that are public health threats. The Center for Pharmacometrics and Systems Pharmacology is focused on improving drug safety.

Three hospitals located in Medical City serve thousands of residents throughout Central Florida and beyond. Orlando Veterans Affairs Medical Center and SimLearn Center opened in 2015 for outpatient, inpatient and emergency services. The 1.2-million-square-foot facility is one of the largest in the VA hospital system, with 134 inpatient beds and 60 bedrooms to accommodate a residential rehabilitation treatment program and a 120-bed community living center.

The hospital serves as a training hub for the entire VA hospital system, which is delivered through The Simulation Learning, Education and Research Network (SimLEARN), a health care training simulation program.

Nemours Children’s Hospital, one of only two in the nation, opened in 2012 and brings state-of-the-art pediatric medical services to the region. In 2019, the hospital welcomed its inaugural class of pediatric residents — 12 medical students who will spend three years completing their training.

The hospital is focused on clinical trials in rare, complex pediatric conditions with world-renowned experts researching childhood disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment.

dren in a way that’s tailored to their specific disease through its PedsAcademy (PEEDS-Academy).

More than 50 UCF faculty and student teachers work closely with physicians to deliver daily STEM instruction to hospitalized patients using high-tech learning tools such as virtual reality, robotics and more.

The pediatric hospital also has a Ronald McDonald House on-site, with accommodations for families with children in treatment at the hospital and a Publix pharmacy.

The UCF Lake Nona Medical Center, when it opens in 2021, will become the third hospital in Medical City.

The Johnson & Johnson Human Performance Institute, also located in Medical City, recently doubled its size after moving into a larger location. The center opened in 1991 and works with anyone interested in optimizing energy management to achieve their personal and professional best.

Nearby, GuideWell Innovation Center provides office space for companies in health and wellness industries. The center connects entrepreneurs, research-and-development experts and healthcare leaders with ideas, funding and resources. The 92,000-square-foot facility works with early-stage companies as an incubator as they develop new technologies and solutions for health care.

GuideWell Innovation Center features a 250-seat theater in the round, coworking space for startups and entrepreneurs, a “startup garage” featuring the latest 3-D printing technology and industrial engineering expertise from Edison Nation Medical.

There’s also a living lab for testing new products and technology as well as an audiovisual production studio, an executive boardroom and a screening room.

Pre-K to Ph.D. LAKE NONA OFFERS EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR EVERYONE. Lake Nona, which prides itself as being “obsessed with education,” offers A-rated schools with programs from pre-K to Ph.D.s. Three institutions of higher learning are within three miles of each other: the UCF College of Medicine, the UF Research & Academic Center and College of Pharmacy and Valencia College at Lake Nona.

Together they provide a synergistic learning environment that engages students with researchers, doctors, professors and businesspeople. Top-rated primary and secondary public schools serve the community starting with Laureate Park Elementary — Lake Nona’s newest school — located in Laureate Park neighborhood.

Equipped with cutting-edge technology, each classroom has interactive SmartBoards to encourage collaboration among educators and students. The elementary school also has a STEM-based preschool to teach children about science, technology, engineering and math.

NorthLake Park Community School, another elementary school, is co-located with the YMCA in an innovative public-private partnership.

Lake Nona Middle School serves the entire community and feeds into Lake Nona High School, which partners with Valencia College in a Collegiate Academy. The academy offers select college-level courses to complete an Associate of Arts degree.

The district is anchored by the United States Tennis Association (USTA) National Campus, which opened in 2017 with 100 courts open to the public spread across 64 acres. USTA courts include six indoor courts, Har Tru championship green clay courts, red clay courts that mimic the conditions of European competitive tennis, progressive courts to train children and a family zone.

The 270,000-square foot, state-of-the-art facility is home to the United States Professional Tennis Association (USPTA)

Headquarters, the USTA Florida Headquarters and UCF’s varsity tennis program.

The campus is training ground for several Lake Nona residents, including local pros Madison Keys, Donald Young, CiCi Bellis and Frances Tiafoe and others from around the world.

In May 2019, the campus hosted the NCAA Division I Championship broadcast live on The Tennis Channel. The facility provides playing, training and educational experiences for recreational players, competitive players, coaches and spectators.

As home of USTA Player Development, more than 600 current and aspiring professional tennis players are assisted by Team USA coaching, training and medical staffers.

Other programs offered include after-school and weekend S P E C I A L R E P O R T : L A K E N O N A MC13

That program trains elite wheelchair tennis players including Mackensize Soldeno, slated to be on the Paralympics team in 2020.

USTA also hosts the NEC Masters Wheelchair Championships.

In one of several synergistic relationships in the Sports & Performance District, Nemour’s Childrens Hospital in Medical City has partnered with the Andrews Institute for Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine to become the campus’s official medical providers.

Meanwhile, the Johnson & Johnson Human Performance Institute works within the district to harness sports science and athleticism to help business leaders perform at their peak.

The district also includes Lake Nona Golf & Country Club, XL Soccer and Drive Shack Golf Experience, a three-story, 57,000-square-foot driving range with 90 outdoor driving bays MC14 S P E C I A L R E P O R T : L A K E N O N A

And there’s more. The Lake Nona Adventure Park, which opened in 2019 next to Heroes City Park in the Laureate Park neighborhood, boasts is the world’s first solar-powered water ski and wakeboard cable park.

The Adventure Park also features an inflatable aqua park, a 60-foot climbing tower, a ropes course and climbing walls, a pro shop with equipment rentals and sales plus a café.

In 2020, the Lake Nona Wellness Center opens in Town Center providing additional training facilities and resources for the Sports & Performance District. The 110,000-square-foot center will have first-class equipment as well as a sprint track, an indoor climbing wall and indoor and outdoor pools.

The center will offer personalized health and wellbeing programs that are data-driven and tailored to every fitness level, providing customized programs for residents, families and elite athletes.

s Lake Nona continues to evolve, entertainment options expand with new dining, retail and hospitality amenities including two planned hotels: Tavistock Hotel Collection’s Lake Nona Resort and Town Center Hotel.

Tavistock Development, part of the Tavistock Group, sees itself as a steward of Central Florida with Lake Nona being its “legacy project.” Developers, building on synergies with Tavistock’s varied worldwide holdings, are focused on making Lake Nona a regional shopping and entertainment destination.

Town Center serves as the entertainment and retail hub of

Lake Nona, with 4 million square feet of shops, restaurants, hotels, office and entertainment opportunities at buildout.

In 2020, a new Cinépolis movie theater will open with nine movie screens, a bar and lounge, stadium seating and in-theater waiter service.

Also coming: an integrative wellness center envisioned as a one-stop, health hub with an exercise gym and medical offices.

Plans call for a comedy club, bowling alley, brewery and live performance venue.

Tavistock Restaurant Collection, a sister company to Tavistock Development, is cultivating Lake Nona’s culinary scene with dining concepts including Park Pizza & Brewing Company, S P E C I A L R E P O R T : L A K E N O N A MC15

Canvas Restaurant & Market and Chroma Modern Bar + Kitchen.

More retail tenants moving into the Town Center include Foxtail Coffee, located on the ground floor of Pixon apartments, and Island Fin Poké.

Also check out a new foodie concept, Boxi Park, a collection of repurposed shipping containers that serve as open-air, counter-serve restaurants. It’s an outdoor district with a mix of restaurants, bars, shops, beach volleyball courts, a dog park, a playground and an outdoor stage.

Brightly painted shipping containers double as public art, housing food and beverage offerings. Many of the counterserve restaurants feature dishes by world-class chefs with Michelin-rated restaurant experience.

The repurposed shipping containers are permanent installations, but the restaurants will evolve with new concepts rotating in. Plans call for a Boxi Park test kitchen to incubate new restaurant concepts as Tavistock Restaurant Group partners with local chefs.

Lake Nona’s hospitality offerings expand in 2019 with the opening of Lake Nona Resort, one of the latest additions to the Tavistock Hotel Collection.

The 215-room resort is located on the southern shore of Lake Nona and features a 15-acre lagoon-style water park — one of the largest swimming pools in the nation.

Lake Nona Resort will feature a fitness and spa, a beach volleyball venue, guest rooms and condominium units. The resort joins two existing hotels: a Marriott Residence Inn and Courtyard

by Marriott, both owned by Tavistock Hotel Group.

Brain Trust LAKE NONA IMPACT FORUM IS A MEETING OF THE MINDS. Envisioned as a prototype for the rest of the nation, Lake Nona attracts a brain trust of health and wellness thought leaders, innovators and companies.

Each year, experts in health and well-being converge at Lake Nona Impact Forum to collaborate and exchange ideas about creating sustainable, healthy communities. This international meeting of the minds produces entrepreneurial ideas that are transforming human performance.

The annual event is hosted by the Lake Nona Institute, a nonprofit entity that leads community initiatives including a multimillion-dollar longitudinal study, the Lake Nona Life Project, that monitors the health of residents over decades.

Year-round, Lake Nona attracts leading wellness experts including bestselling author Deepak Chopra, who customized a health app he co-founded called Jiyo. Chopra launched the app during his visit to the community in 2018.

The Jiyo Lake Nona wellbeing app holistically examines all aspects of physical and emotional health by tracking behavior and offering insights to enhance quality of life.

Also throughout the year, executives nationwide travel to the Johnson & Johnson Human Performance Institute to learn how to better harness their energy for improved professional and personal outcomes.

ome sales are hotter than ever in Lake Nona.

In fact, the community has consistently ranked among the 20 top-selling master-planned communities in the U.S. Beyond Lake Nona’s wide selection of exceptional homes, the community offers an unparalleled lifestyle — neighborhoods with premier amenities, tons of events and an ambiance that promotes happy, healthy living.

Laureate Park, Lake Nona’s largest and best-selling neighborhood, concluded 2017 with 360 sales. Among those contracts were single-family homes, townhomes, cottages and urban bungalows situated among pocket parks and trails.

Builders in the neighborhood include Ashton Woods Homes, Craft Homes, David Weekley Homes, Dream Finders Homes, Pulte Homes and Taylor Morrison Homes.

But there’s much more. Somerset Park’s single-family homes are sold out, and the Mediterranean-inspired Enclave at VillageWalk by Pulte Homes continues to be in demand.

An Eventful Community Lake Nona is an eventful place to live with more than 1,000 community activities a year, including a Saturday morning farmers market in Town Center, free yoga classes, outdoor concerts and more.

“We believe in art in all of its forms, so we certainly look into different options and how we can engage the community with what we’re doing,” says Juan Santos, vice president of Brand Experience for Tavistock.

Art After Dark at Town Center is a popular event where residents mingle with local artists from the Orlando art scene on the first Friday of each month and dine at visiting food trucks.

Weekly events include meditation classes at Lakehouse, Cycle & Core classes at LP Fit, Yoga Nona at Crescent Park, Chess Club and Live + Local. Boxi Park’s outdoor stage also brings the community together weekly for shows and music performances.

Located east of Lake Nona, it will straddle Orange and Osceola counties.

Premier active-adult builder Del Webb is planning the first residential project, a gated, 700-acre neighborhood called Del Webb Sunbridge to be located near Narcoossee Road in northwest Osceola County. It could include more than 1,350 homes.

Del Webb, a national brand of PulteGroup, Inc. is a pioneer in active-adult communities and would bring more than six decades of homebuilding experience to Sunbridge. Ground could be broken later this year, with model homes anticipated to open in the summer of 2019.

“Del Webb has been the premier active-adult homebuilder in the nation for more than 60 years,” says Rob Adams, vice president of residential development for Tavistock. “Their track record of creating vibrant, active places will be a wonderful addition to Sunbridge.”

While still in the early planning stages, Sunbridge will incorporate best practices from Tavistock’s award-winning portfolio, including Lake Nona, which ranks among the best-selling master-planned communities in the U.S. and was heralded in Fortune magazine as “the future of cities.”

Lake Nona has a residential option for just about everyone, including three apartment complexes. Those include (from top): LandonHouse Apartments, Ariel Apartments and Pixon at Lake Nona. The community’s first active-adult project is Beazer Homes’ Gatherings of Lake Nona (above), featuring condominiums priced from the high $200s.

in the world, it features a Tom Fazio-designed championship golf course, a clubhouse, a lodge, a Bath & Racquet Club, yearround children’s programming and 24-hour gated security.

“Our diversification and innovation in product types continues to be a strong draw for a variety of homeowners,” says Rob Adams, vice president of residential development. “We like to have different products that appeal to different people. By broadening our appeal, we grow our sales. We cast a wide net.”

That’s why Lake Nona offers single-family homes, townhomes, luxury apartments and custom estates at a wide range of price points, he adds.

That net has now been cast even wider. Lake Nona’s first active-adult community, Gatherings of Lake Nona, built by Beazer Homes, has been welcoming its newest residents.

Offering a variety of amenities and programming, the activeadult community is located near the state-of-the-art Orlando VA Medical Center. Gatherings of Lake Nona offers more than 200 condominiums with prices starting in the high $200s.

Another rental community, Pixon at Lake Nona, is located within walking distance of the Lake Nona Town Center. It’s a 200-unit modern flat community set to open in 2019.
