McCraney Property Company and Tavistock Development Company are gearing up to build the next phase of Infinity Park.
A site plan from Kimley-Horn submitted to Orange County calls for three warehouses with a combined 205,670 square feet of distribution space, with buildings ranging in size between 49,000 and 101,920 square feet. The project would be built on 12.3 acres at the northwest corner of Consulate Drive and Emissary Avenue.
Representatives from Kimley-Horn and Tavistock attended a pre-application meeting with Orange County planning staff on Wednesday to discuss the development of the proposed warehouses.
McCraney and Tavistock have already delivered nine distribution buildings with a total of 1,258,219 square feet of space in two previous phases between 2019 and 2021. FedEx leases the entirety of the park’s largest warehouse, a 433,434-square-foot cross-dock building. The rest of the buildings are rear-loaded with between 72,921 and 128,341 square feet of space, with Frito-Lay and Pepsi among the other high-profile tenants.
Orange Lake Resorts, home to the Holiday Inn Club Vacations brand, has a 240,000-square-foot corporate campus at Infinity Park with a capacity for 2,100 employees. The company opened a 125,000-square-foot corporate headquarters building in 2019, next to an adjacent 115,000-square-foot corporate contact center.
Infinity Park currently consists of only industrial and office uses, other than a Starbucks store at the northwest corner of Consulate Drive and S John Young Parkway. However, Tavistock previously announced plans for a 120-room hotel and adjacent 15,000 square feet of retail, and the developer also received approval from county commissioners in 2022 for 750 multifamily units.
The mixed-use development received multiple awards from NAIOP Central Florida, including the 2014 Office Development of the Year for the corporate contact center and the 2019 Industrial Development of the Year for the first industrial phase, which consisted of five buildings with a combined 524,629 square feet.
Tavistock filed plans earlier this year for a pair of other industrial projects, including a 209,800-square-foot industrial park on 15.75 acres south of the UTSA National Training Center in Lake Nona. The plans call for five buildings ranging in size between 35,000 and 50,000 square feet.
“We’ve had a lot of people approach us for indoor sports-related things — everything from indoor volleyball to basketball to hitting batting cages and the like,” Tavistock Senior VP Skipper Peek previously told GrowthSpotter.
The developer also has plans for a new 132.4-acre mixed-use district called Lake Nona South, which would be west of Lake Nona Boulevard across the street from Lake Nona West. While the developer hasn’t revealed specific project details, such as the proposed square footage, an application submitted to the South Florida Water Management District stated that the development would provide airport support industrial facilities to support Medical City.
McCraney also has a few other Central Florida industrial projects in the works. The largest is Logistics 429 at Apopka Ridge, which will include 1.26 million square feet of distribution space in five buildings at 1403 Binion Rd. in Apopka The two-phase project is part of the 367-acre master-planned community The Ridge PD, which is approved for up to 683 single-family homes, 678 apartments, 350,000 square feet of commercial and office space, and up to 1.5 million square feet of industrial uses.
The industrial developer also plans to develop a 185,603-square-foot warehouse project on 14 acres at 603 Hennis Rd. in Winter Garden, along with Commerce 429, a 485,813-square-foot warehouse project at 1253 Ocoee Apopka Rd. in Ocoee. Commerce 429’s first phase, which includes six buildings and 314,011 square feet, is complete, and a two-building second phase with 171,802 square feet is under construction.
