Mount Dora, Florida

7 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 3, ISSUE 3 improvement projects where the building owners have brought in new tenants to refresh the spaces. Where they previously may have been single-use, they now offer a variety of either retail, dining, service, or office.” The Marketplace on the corner of Fourth Avenue and Donnelly Street is one such example of a single-use space turned entrepreneurial incubator. Modeled after successful concepts like the Plant Street Market in Winter Garden and the East End Market in Orlando, the multi- vendor venue features carefully curated artists and food purveyors, filling the 4,500-square-foot building that was formerly home to Eduardo’s bar and restaurant. The now-historic Renaissance Building, erected during the 1920s to serve as the town’s hotel, was also recently remodeled for restaurant, office, and retail use. The spirit of beautification and revitalization are alive and well in Mount Dora, where wellbeing Solar Farm - Photo Courtesy of Novasol Energy WBID Rendering
