Just east of Orlando’s international airport, the state-of-the-art community of Lake Nona is quickly developing with billions of dollars in new facilities, thousands of high-value jobs and modern neighborhoods.
The 7,000-acre master-planned Lake Nona community will provide healthy living and sustainability products for residents and businesses through GE ecomagination and healthymagination solutions.
“Our collaboration with GE brings a global perspective to Lake Nona that is helping us achieve a level of efficiency unmatched in the region,” said Lake Nona President Jim Zboril. “With the help of GE’s emerging, innovative products, Lake Nona is quickly becoming a showplace for cutting-edge, sustainable design. GE’s products will play a key role in Lake Nona’s orientation for healthy living and sustainability, making a meaningful difference in energy use and health outcomes at Lake Nona.”
In March, Golf Channel commentators broke from chattering about Tiger Woods’ and Ernie Els’ performances in the Tavistock Cup at Orlando’s Lake Nona Golf & Country Club to gush about a nearby complex of research labs, education facilities and hospitals that make up Orlando’s new “Medical City.”
Over piney treetops, viewers got a long look at the biotech hub, which includes Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute and UCF’s medical school. The spotlight on Medical City was a rare glimpse at a part of the region’s economy that is usually defined in terms mouse ears, roller coasters and performing killer whales.
Lake Nona announced today that PGA Tour player and Lake Nona resident Graeme McDowell has partnered with Bistro Concepts, LLC, to bring Lake Nona a modern tavern concept, NONA BLUE.
The group has signed a lease for a 5,618 square-foot restaurant at its retail shopping center Lake Nona Village, located on Narcoossee Road between the entrances to the renowned Lake Nona Golf & Country Club and NorthLake Park.
