Property: Formerly Bob’s Meat Market, It offers strong visibility on a high-traffic arterial and can serve as an income-producing asset while redevelopment plans are prepared.
Location & Traffic
• Extremely High Exposure: E. Colonial Drive carries over 44,000–52,900 vehicles per day. This frontage ensures maximum consumer reach and signage visibility. Old Cheney Hwy also feeds traffic through the site’s corner.
• Major Connectivity: The site sits minutes from the SR-408 East-West Expressway, linking quickly to Downtown, the airport and beyond. Nearby hubs include the University of Central Florida, Central Florida Research Park and Waterford Lakes (all within 3–5 miles). Brightline’s new rail station and the Orlando Int’l Airport are ~20–25 minutes away, and the Space Coast/beaches 45 minutes (per the Grow community info).
• Future Development: Directly across Colonial Dr. is Pulte’s “The Grow” – Orlando’s first master-planned agrihood – bringing ~1,500 homes (sales begin late 2025). This rising residential population will bolster daytime demand and foot traffic.
Zoning & Uses
• C-1 (General Retail/Commercial) Zoning: Orange County’s C-1 district is intended for neighborhood retail/service uses at intersections of arterials. It permits a broad array of commercial activities including retail stores, restaurants, offices, banks, personal services, and more.

Unlike many vacant pads, this site reportedly needs minimal site clearing or mitigation, speeding entitlement. The existing structures can be retained for interim income or removed for a new multi-tenant retail center or mixed-use project under C-1 provisions.
